Cyber Security
Objective Help Member States establish national 24/7 "alert, watch, and warning" teams, also known as Computer Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRT) through technical assistance and training; build the capacity of CSIRT personnel in Member States to comply effectively with the requirements established in the OAS Comprehensive Inter-American Strategy to Combat Threats to Cyber Security, and facilitate the creation and maintenance of a hemispheric network of CSIRT to promote the sharing of information and best practices.
Description This program is implemented through three projects: 1) sub-regional and hemispheric workshops; 2) technical assistance missions to build national CSIRT capacity; and 3) training and support for the hemispheric CSIRT network hosted on the OAS secure server. The CICTE Secretariat is one of three OAS entities mandated to assist Member States in implementing the “OAS Comprehensive Inter-American Strategy to Combat Threats to Cyber Security” adopted by the OAS General Assembly in 2004.
