2. Main Achievements
<not yet final>
The incident response team handled one security incidents during the quarter and issued xx security advisories.
Good progress has been made on preparing for
SSC6. The execution of this has been
postponed until next quarter as integrating the CMS CRAB job management system
into the SSC Framework took longer than anticipated.
Preparations have been made for the next EGI-CSIRT security tutorial to happen at the GridKa summer school (August) and at the Technical Forum (September). These will include hands-on forensics exercises.
The Software Vulnerability Group handled xx new vulnerabilities during the quarter and issued two advisories.
Discussions between CSIRT, SVG, and OMB agreed the approach to sites running software for which security support has ended. A general advisory on this was issued by CSIRT and a further advisory has been drafted on the timeline for migration away from gLite 3.2 middleware components.
