The security contact shall respect the following base requirements:

  1. It is strongly recommended to use a dedicated email address for the security contact. 
  2. Where possible, use the NREN's security function (local CERT/CSIRT). We will also accept specific security capability for the federation service, if the organization has a proper procedure to deal with the communication.
  3. Notify the eduGAIN CSIRT <abuse@edugain.org>, which is the established security contact for the eduGAIN Service, in case of federated security incident and coordination (as required by [eduGAIN-sec-handbook]). 
  4. Respond to requests for assistance with a security incident from the eduGAIN CSIRT or other eduGAIN Participants in a timely manner. The recommended response time is half business day.

  5. Respect the Traffic Light Protocol [TLP] information disclosure policy and use it during incident response communications (ref. https://www.first.org/tlp).

  6. The contact needs to expect that the eduGAIN CSIRT runs periodic communication checks which need to be handled as any other incident response communication.
