The first CERT in Finland

Funet CERT was founded already in 1995 as the first CERT team in Finland. During the years, our team has achieved experience about a variety of incidents, expertise on how to investigate them and their trends.

Constantly dynamic security field is a challenge to the experts of the CERT team, the security correspondents as well as to the maintainers in the member organizations.

The role of the CERT network

Funet CERT gained the accredited membership of The Trusted Introducer in TERENA in April 2002. We started participation in the working group of TERENA (nowadays TF-CSIRT) already in the early 1990s. You can find more information from the TF-CSIRT you can find on our cooperation pages.

We have also participated in annual conferences of the international FIRST organization already since 1990. The membership of FIRST was granted to Funet CERT in May 2005.
