Since September 2018 CERT.LV has been implementing a Connecting Europe Facility funded action "Improving Cyber Security Capacities in Latvia". We are happy to say that during the course of 28 months of the action we managed to achieve all goals and milestones set out for the action.
TF-CSIRT is turning 20! And who is best to tell the story than those who lived it? To mark this special occasion, we have reached out to some of the most notable members of the community, who have contributed to TF-CSIRT as we know it today and asked them to share their memories and visions for the future.
To learn about the key cyberincidents affecting Latvian cyberspace and main achievements of CERT.LV, please see the 2019 Annual Public Performance Report.
CERT.LV has developed a tool, that by being fully integrable within existing workflow, is improving daily operations for the incident response team in Latvia. It is deemed that in future this tool might become useful to other incident response teams in European countries and beyond. Pastelyzer allows easy integration into workflow of any organization via an API.
The 6th iteration of the annual cyber exercise Crossed Swords in Riga, Latvia, brought together more than 120 technical experts, Cyber Commands´ members, Special Forces operators and military police.
