CSIRT team
Hello Sairam Reddy Gunkala,
You have posted a good discussion but allow me to add a few points. CSIRT team will help an organization in dealing with cyber threats (Horne, 2014). The rate of cyberthreats have increased over the past years and organizations should be prepared. The best way to deal with computer threats is to have a CSIRT team put in place. CSIRT team consist of different members who might have different roles. These members are required to cooperate and work together to protect computers.
An organization should be keen when it comes to the selection of the members to fit in the CSIRT Team. First of all, an organization should consider the qualification of the candidates. The candidates should be able to prevent threats meaning. So, this means that they should have knowledge when it comes to computer security. The members should have a minimum or no other work responsibilities. If the members have more than one duty in an organization, there is a likelihood that they will lack enough time to handle computer threats. We understand that computer threats should be dealt with within the shortest time possible to prevent further effects. So, this means that the CSIRT team members should be available all the time to prevent any potential threat.
The team members should have computer skills, among other essential skills. They should be able to notice any threat. It requires outstanding skills to notice threats, especially the ones from smart attackers. The members should be able to deal with the threat and prevent it by all means possible. The CSIRT team should have a team leader who will guide them and solve any misunderstanding among the members.
