English Abstract
This study will show how to implement and manage a computer emergency response team (CERT) in the State of Kuwait.
Hence, there is an urgent need to acquire and implement the best practices of CERTs around the world, which protect information systems and services.
This stems from the fact that such systems and services are of paramount importance to the social and economic welfare and development of any nation, as they form the main foundation of modern infrastructure.
Hence, the security and availability of such systems and services is essential.
Making Kuwait a financial and cultural capital is considered a key priority for all government institutions.
To materialize this vision, secure and intrusion-safe systems must be developed, along with a framework to protect sensitive information.
The Central Agency for Information Technology (CAIT) has taken the responsibility of administration and protection of such information as well as transportation through the Kuwait’s communication infrastructure.
CAIT is obliged to protect Kuwait’s information repository from non-authorized use, whether disruptive or not, gain the confidence of its users and constituents, and assure the continuity of safe information systems in both governmental and private organizations.
Hence, CAIT has embarked on the Kuwait Computer Emergency Response Team (KW-CERT) initiative in order to build the organizational and technical competencies that set the information security standards, policies, and governance requirements.
The objective of this study is to support and implement the KW-CERT initiative, using the best practices and solutions
