The purposes of GARR-CERT are:

proactive measures to reduce the risk of computer security
incidents;
- to assist the users of the GARR network in responding to such
incidents when they occur.

Network, the Italian Academic and Research Network.
3.3 Sponsorship
GARR-CERT is an operative service of the GARR Consortium.
3.4 Authority
GARR-CERT operates under the auspices of the GARR members and the
supervision of the GARR Consortium management.
In case of missing support from the local APM, it has authority to
obtain from GARR NOC the filtering of the involved node(s) on the
GARR network border routers.
4. Policies
4.1 Types of Incidents and Level of Support
GARR-CERT is authorized to address all types of computer security
incidents that occur at nodes connected to the GARR network.
The level of support given by GARR-CERT will vary according to the
severity of the incident and the GARR-CERT's resources at the time.
Every effort will be done to give some response within one working
day.
No direct support will be given to end-users, as they are expected
to contact their system administrators.
GARR-CERT expects that the APM of the sites involved in security
incidents will cooperate in the resolution of the problem.
The incident handling procedure, which, in extreme cases, will lead
to filtering the compromised node(s) on the GARR network border
routers can be found at:
https://www.cert.garr.it/en/incidents-management/management-procedure
GARR-CERT is committed to keeping its constituency informed of
potential vulnerabilities, possibly before they are actively
exploited.
4.2 Co-operation, Interaction and Disclosure of Information
GARR-CERT, unless explicitly authorized, will not divulge the
identity of nodes victims of computer security incidents.
4.3 Communication and Authentication

transmission of low-sensitivity data.
If it is necessary to send high sensitivity data by e-mail, PGP will
be used.

these purposes.
