3.9.7.3.4 DOE Computer Incident Advisory Capability (CIAC)
CIAC is the Department of Energy's (DOE's) Computer Incident
Advisory Capability. CIAC is a four-person team of computer
scientists from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory
(LLNL) charged with the primary responsibility of assisting
DOE sites faced with computer security incidents (e.g.,
intruder attacks, virus infections, worm attacks, etc.).
This capability is available to DOE sites on a 24-hour-a-day
basis.
CIAC was formed to provide a centralized response capability
(including technical assistance), to keep sites informed of
current events, to deal proactively with computer security
issues, and to maintain liaisons with other response teams
and agencies. CIAC's charter is to assist sites (through
direct technical assistance, providing information, or
referring inquiries to other technical experts), serve as a
clearinghouse for information about threats/known
incidents/vulnerabilities, develop guidelines for incident
handling, develop software for responding to
events/incidents, analyze events and trends, conduct
training and awareness activities, and alert and advise
sites about vulnerabilities and potential attacks.
CIAC's business hours phone number is (415) 422-8193 or FTS
532-8193. CIAC's e-mail address is CIAC@TIGER.LLNL.GOV.
3.9.7.3.5 NASA Ames Computer Network Security Response Team
The Computer Network Security Response Team (CNSRT) is NASA
Ames Research Center's local version of the DARPA CERT.
Formed in August of 1989, the team has a constituency that
is primarily Ames users, but it is also involved in
assisting other NASA Centers and federal agencies. CNSRT
maintains liaisons with the DOE's CIAC team and the DARPA
CERT. It is also a charter member of the CERT System. The
team may be reached by 24 hour pager at (415) 694-0571, or
by electronic mail to CNSRT@AMES.ARC.NASA.GOV.
