ABSTRACT
The use of a corporate Computer Emergency Response
Team (CERT) is invaluable. Due to the numerous com-
plexities of any computer-related crime, it is extremely
advantageous to have a single group that is acutely familiar
with the Incident Response Plan to call upon. The CERT
team should be a technically astute group, that is knowl-
edgeable in the area of legal investigations, the Corporate
Security Policy (especially the Incident Response Plan),
the severity levels of various attacks, and the company
position on information dissemination and disclosure.
