The CERT/CC (Computer Emergency Response Team Coordination Center) was created by DARPA in November 1988 after the Morris Worm struck. It is a major coordination center in dealing with internet security problems.


The CERT/CC is run by the federally funded Software Engineering Institute (SEI) at Carnegie Mellon University. The SEI also created the Capability Maturity Model (CMM).


The CERT/CC is not to be confused with United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US_CERT) which is part of the National Cyber Security Division of the United States Government's Department of Homeland Security. The two organisations work closely together and cross reference each other.

City of Austin - CTxCCC CERT (551 words)
A "CERT" is a group of people that is organized under the leadership of a local jurisdiction and receives special training that enhances their ability to recognize, respond to, and recover from a major emergency or disaster situation.
CERT training provides community self-sufficiency through the development of response teams that can assist others by providing vital services in the absence of emergency responders, whose arrival may be delayed due to a large event.
CERT provides an excellent opportunity for Austinites to play an important role in helping to safeguard, prepare for and respond to major emergencies and disasters in our community.
