  STAYING INFORMED
  
    Problems continue to be found in operating systems, applications
    software, networks and technology. And an ongoing battle between 
    the good guys fixing the problems and the bad guy exploiting the
    problems.

  CERT, the home of the well-known CERT(R) Coordination Center, is
  located at Carnegie Mellon University's Software Engineering
  Institute. We study internet security vulnerabilities, research
  long-term changes in networked systems, and develop information and
  training to help you improve security.

  Internet Storm Center (ISC) was created in 2001 following the
  successful detection, analysis, and widespread warning of the Li0n
  worm. Today, the ISC provides a free analysis and warning service to
  thousands of Internet users and organizations, and is actively
  working with Internet Service Providers to fight back against the
  most malicious attackers.

  Today the Internet Storm Center gathers millions of intrusion
  detection log entries every day, from sensors covering over 500,000 IP
  addresses in over 50 countries. It is rapidly expanding in a quest to
  do a better job of finding new storms faster, identifying the sites
  that are used for attacks, and providing authoritative data on the
  types of attacks that are being mounted against computers in various
  industries and regions around the globe. The Internet Storm Center is
  a free service to the Internet community. The work is supported by the
  SANS Institute from tuition paid by students attending SANS security
  education programs. Volunteer incident handlers donate their valuable
  time to analyze detects and anomalies, and post a daily diary of their
  analysis and thoughts on the Storm Center web site.
