RENU - Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT)
We co-ordinate and assist Research and Education member institutions to implement proactive services to reduce the risk of computer security incidents, as well as respond to such incidents as they occur.
About RENU-CERT
The RENU-Computer Emergency Response Team (RENU-CERT) section was established in 2016 and became officially available to RENU member institutions in 2018.
Its main purpose is to handle security incidents of the institutions connected to the RENU network. The RENU-CERT co-ordinates security incidents on behalf of its constituency and has no authority reaching further than that.
