TI Process

Summary

	Summary  Registration  Accreditation  Certification

 
Any organisation that has implemented a security or incident response capability or has a team that provides incident management services is invited to register with the TI. Registration is subject to a vetting/review process which takes three to four weeks on average, but is free of charge. Once registered - also known as "listed" - the contact data of the team will be made publicly available by the TI.

To maintain your "listed" team data, or to find other team's data, consider the contact information of all registered ("listed") teams in Europe:

• all teams from A..Z
• all teams per country

If you identify any changes or errors please contact us at your earliest convenience to the TI!

The logical next step for any registered team is to consider becoming an accredited team. Accreditation is performed by the TI following a standardised process which requires between one and four months, depending on your own feedback. Any registered CSIRT that is serious about their service can gain accreditation. A one-time accreditation fee and an annual fee ensure the continuity of the TI service. The accredited teams have access to a trusted website, regular closed meetings, secure mailing lists and other value added services.

Since September 2010, certification is the next step in the TI Maturity Model for security and incident response teams. Certification is meant for those Accredited teams who have internal and/or external reasons to have their maturity level gauged in an independent way. When the certification succeeds, the teams can show this to their constituents, to their funding bodies, to other parties or teams they want to cooperate with. The certified teams stay part of the community of accredited teams - the certification can be seen as extra branding, useful for all sorts of purposes in the near future.
