Dear All
One of the first tasks the newly formed "EGEE Joint Security Group (JSG)"
requires of every site in EGEE is a confirmed security contact person. We
also need this information for GridPP. I already have lists of contacts at
the various sites and I'm aware that many of those who should be contacted
in the event of a security incident are already on these and other mailing
lists. However, to be sure of coverage and up to date information I'm
requesting that every site mail me within the next week:
1) A primary (and if possible also a secondary) security contact person at
the site (e.g. the person responsible for computer security of the
university) with email and phone contact details.
2) A primary (and if possible also a secondary) security contact person who
is responsible for grid enabled machines at the site (most likely the system
administrator for the machines) with email and phone contact details.
3) A brief note as to what if any out of hours security arrangements are
currently in place.
I'm sure you will all be well aware of how important it is that we gather
this information. Email and phone notifications are not necessarily the best
way to communicate on incidents (secure RSS feeds could be used for
instance) but it is what we have for now. The JSG will (amongst other
things) be working to improve communication mechanisms over the coming
months.
Many thanks in advance for your fast response to this request.
Kind regards,
Jeremy
