CERT (Computer Emergency Response Teams)

CERT (Computer Emergency Response Teams) are expert groups tasked with protecting organizations’ digital systems from cyber threats. They monitor for security issues, investigate incidents, and provide advice on preventing and responding to cyberattacks. Think of them as a specialized emergency service for computers and networks, helping businesses and governments stay secure and recover quickly if cyber threats occur. CERTs play a crucial role in managing cybersecurity risks, sharing information about new threats, and strengthening overall digital defenses.
