Abstract

This document is obsolete. It is replaced by the CSIRT Services Framework, which the SEI helped develop as part of the FIRST CSIRT Development Framework Special Interest Group.

The 2002 document presented a list of computer security incident response team (CSIRT) services and their definitions. The list provided a common framework for a consistent and comparable description of CSIRTs and their corresponding services.
