The Cybersecurity Digital Service Infrastructure (DSI) is underpinned by the European Strategy for Cybersecurity: it provides an information sharing platform ("MeliCERTes") facilitating operational cooperation among Computer Security Incident Response Teams (CSIRTs), as well as funding for CSIRTs to effectively take part in its activities.
The Action's goal is to ensure compliance of the Latvian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT.LV – hosted by the Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science, University of Latvia) with the NIS Directive.
The Action will increase the maturity level of CERT.LV, strengthen the capacities of its personnel, and carry out nationwide awareness-raising activities. Specifically the action will:
- establish access points from CERT.LV to MeliCERTes
