Description
EGI Computer Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT) is responsible for all aspects of operational security aiming at achieving a secure infrastructure within EGI. The EGI CSIRT ensures both the coordination with peer grids and with the NGIs and NREN CSIRTs. The EGI CSIRT acts as a forum to combine efforts and resources from the NGIs in different areas, including Grid security monitoring, Security training and dissemination, and improvements in responses to incidents (e.g. security drills).
EGI CSIRT security team is organized in following groups.
- Incident Response Task Force (IRTF)
Handle day to day operational security issues and coordinate Computer-Security-Incident-Response across the EGI infrastructure. - Security Drills Group (SDG)
Provide an overview of the various CSIRTs readiness' to react to an computer security incident and challenge the inter CSIRT communication channels.
Security Monitoring Group (SMG)
Develop, deploy and maintain security monitoring tools.
Training and Dissemination Group (TDG)
Raise security awareness and improve security for system administrators by providing security training and best practice
The session will present current work and status of EGI CSIRT and most important we will also discuss the further plans.
All EGI CSIRT members should attend this session, but this session is also open to NGI security officers, site security contacts, site manager and system administrators who wish to be involved or are just interested in Grid operational security.
