reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD1128016 | Open PDF

Abstract:

At the CERT Division of Carnegie Mellons Software Engineering Institute (SEI), we research and analyze cybersecurity in its many forms. We discover and address software vulnerabilities, develop approaches that measure and mitigate risk, and research how cyberattackers behave. We also research ways to improve incident response practices, investigate ways to identify and mitigate cyber threats from insiders, improve data monitoring for measuring adversary activity, and devise strategies for developing and maintaining a prepared cyber workforce. We help organizations determine how effective their security-related practices are. To help others benefit rom our work, we develop tools, products, methods, and training to help organizations conduct forensic examinations, analyze vulnerabilities, and monitor largescale networks.
