Axxera Inc

Axxera is playing an ever-increasing role in the operational security business. In particular, the Security Operation Centers (SOCs) work with customers on a daily basis. The constant changes in the security field are one reason companies find it so difficult to adequately deal with security. These constant changes and unforeseen events make it absolutely necessary for Axxera to offer a Emergency Response Team (ERT).

The Axxera-ERT is an operational focus group responsible for proactively providing customers with information to better protect themselves in the form of advisories detailing newly discovered vulnerabilities and observed attack trends. In addition, this team is capable of professionally handling a client system or network compromise. The four primary roles of Axxera- ERT are:

To respond to customer computer and network compromises
To publish critical vulnerabilities to managed and monitored customers; and, in certain cases, the community at large
To publish attack trends based in SOC data
To participate in incident response (IR) gatherings such as CERT/CC sponsored events, FIRST conferences, etc.
