In November 1988, a worm released on the Internet severely paralyzed network services. Subsequently, the United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) established a Computer Emergency Response Team (cert), and the CERT established at Carnegie Mellon University was the "supervisor" of Internet security. Its role is to investigate security issues, issue security warnings and launch public awareness campaigns on the Internet. The CERT Coordination Center's website is http://www.cert.org, with announcements of its activities.
