This portal enables users to handle, mitigate and close themselves different kinds of security events like e.g. virus infections, Skype misconfiguration, etc. </p> <p>As usual, the Security Team will stand-by to manually intervene if the user asks for further help, if the problem cannot be resolved by the user alone, or if it re-occurs.</p> <p><center><img src="/services/images/sems-snapshot.png" width="90%"/></center></p> <p> As done before, the Security Team will send alert notifications to users by mail. This mail includes a unique link <strong>[1]</strong> pointing him to the Self-Mitigation Portal. There, the user will be able to find all actions needed to handle, mitigate and close the event, as well as to provide feedback to the Security Team <strong>[2]</strong>.</p> <p>Before closing the event, the user needs to agree with the CERN Computing Rules <strong>[3]</strong>, and, once submitted <strong>[4]</strong>, the event will be closed automatically. Both user and the Security Team will be notified. In case the actions reported are not sufficient to close the event, the Security Team will be automatically notified and the discussion will continue by mail.</p> </div>    <div id="sidebar"> <ul class="sidemenu"> <li><a href="/home/en/privacy_statement.shtml">Privacy Statement</a></li> </ul> <h3>Computer Security Incident Response</h3> <ul class="sidemenu"> <li><a href="/services/en/emergency.shtml">Emergencies</a> <li><a href="/services/en/sems.shtml">Self-mitigation portal</a></li> </ul> <h3>Consulting, Pentesting & Reviews</h3> <ul class="sidemenu"> <li><a href="/services/en/reviews.shtml">...on request</a> <li><a href="/services/en/whitehats.shtml">CERN WhiteHat Challenge</a> </ul> <h3>Host-Based Intrusion Detection</h3> <ul class="sidemenu"> <li><a href="/services/en/csl.shtml">Central security logging</a></li> <li><a href="/services/en/password_dumps.shtml">Password Dump Notifications</a></li> <li><a href="/services/en/receipts.shtml">Remote Login Notifications</a></li> </ul> <h3>Traffic Control & Monitoring</h3> <ul class="sidemenu"> <li><a href="/services/en/dns.shtml">DNS analysis</a></li> <li><a href="/services/en/ids.shtml">Network-based intrusion detection</a></li> <li><a href="/services/en/firewall.shtml">The CERN outer perimeter firewall</a></li> <li><a href="/services/en/dnim.shtml">Statistical traffic analysis</a></li> <li><a href="/services/en/spam.shtml">SPAM filtering</a></li> </ul> <h3>Vulnerability Scans</h3> <ul class="sidemenu"> <li><a href="/services/en/device_scans.shtml">Device scans</a></li> <li><a href="/services/en/network_scans.shtml">Network scans</a></li> <li><a href="/services/en/passwords.shtml">Password cracking</a></li> <li><a href="/services/en/web_scans.shtml">Web application scans</a></li> </ul> </div>   </div>  <div id="footer-wrap"> <div id="footer-bottom"> © Copyright 2024<strong> <a href="https://cern.ch/security">CERN Computer Security Office</a></strong> <table> <tr> <td id="footer-info-left"> e-mail: <a href="mailto:Computer.Security@cern.ch">Computer.Security@cern.ch</a><br/> Please use the following PGP key to encrypt your messages:<br/> ID: 0x954CE234B4C6ED84<br/> <a href="https://keys.openpgp.org/vks/v1/by-fingerprint/429D60460EBE8006B04CDF02954CE234B4C6ED84">429D 6046 0EBE 8006 B04C DF02 954C E234 B4C6 ED84</a> </td> <td id="footer-info-right"> Phone: +41 22 767 0500<br/> Please listen to the recorded instructions. </td> </tr> </table> </div> </div>  </div>   </body> </html>
