Get the facts straight
[edit]I corrected this article which now identifies "The Computer Emergency Response Team" as the name that belongs to the only organization that uses it. The entity within DHS that uses a similar acronym -- US-CERT -- affords a different name for it. Please refer to the URLs in the article about which this edit pertains, to follow the links to US-CERT and to CERT/CC, which are both the sources of this information.
The remainder of this article is factually incorrect because it is based on the misconception that this name is that name used by the DHS.
What really needs to be defined is US-CERT. The website for US-CERT does not have a definition. Their "About Us" page does give a clue about who they are. It does identify by name, an entity they claim is responsible for them, but the DHS hoe page does not even mention this allagedly responsibel organization.

- Your "Corrections" push the article into a purely US-centric view. Elsewhere in the "Rest Of The World", CERT is a GENERIC term - you can follow some weblinks to CERT organizations in the world - and just to "get the facts straight". If the term "Computer Emergency Response Team" is owned by single team in the USA then this article should be RENAMED to the generic term "CERT" (or any other generic term) because this article does not speak about the US-CERT but it was trying to give an overview on the valuable work of hundreds of CERT teams in the world that jointly work together. This will still be the reality even if the Wikipedia does not inform about it. Guidod (talk) 22:23, 14 March 2009 (UTC)
CERT Statistic

DHS has been working to change meaning
[edit]The article is correctly named to reflect CERT but it also refers to "Community Emergency Response Team"s. The meaning of this acronym, and another one or two (perhaps) have been changing for about 7 years as DHS has looked for its own "sea legs" in the cyberspace domain. A year ago there was a page for the National Cyber Security Division (NCSD) and it had a Director but it had no employees. There is no mention of this on the site, today (27 Dec 2011). At the time the Division did have about a dozen representatives from various technology vendors. At present, I'm only remembering Microsoft and Cisco but I've got quite a bit of compressed data to go through.
About this page -- maybe it needs to be redirected to a disambiguation page.

The list of teams
[edit]This recent Stack Exchange answer recommends using this page for a list of global CERTs. However, I find a number of issues on the list on this page:
- It claims to list "National or economic region teams" but it actually also contains private companies (e.g. RedSearch, FS Group)
- It is incomplete as a list of National teams
- Even more so as a general list of teams (only in First there are over 500 teams)
- Many teams not listed as being on First actually are. In fact, the only one explicitely listed as not being there (EcuCERT), has been a member long before being listed on the page
- The column Size list the number of members for just three teams. This data is probably already outdated for them, and hard to obtain for every team.
This page should get a big overhaul. Probably importing from already available CERT lists.
