Like any other organization, university or enterprise, CERN is permanently under attack. The risks --- legally or financially, to CERN's operation or reputation --- cannot be neglected.
The CERN Computer Security Team has been mandated to protect the operations and reputation of CERN against cyber-threats. In this presentation we will go through the different defense mechanisms the Team is providing in order to prevent, protect, detect and respond to any kind of abuse, attack or intrusion against CERN's computing facilities, devices, accounts, services & control systems in an agile, complex and heterogenous environment and while keeping a good balance between "academia", "operations" and "computer security".
Stefan Lüders, PhD, graduated from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich and joined the European Organization for Particle Physics (CERN) in 2002. Since 2009, he is heading the CERN Computer Security Incident Response Team as CERN’s Computer Security Officer with the mandate to coordinate all aspects of CERN’s computer security – office computing security, computer centre security, GRID computing security and control system security – whilst taking into account CERN’s operational needs. Dr. Lüders has presented on computer security and control system cyber-security topics at many different occasions to international bodies, governments, and companies, and published several articles.
