CIAC is the DOE crisis center for the handling of computer related security incidents. CIAC rapidly investigates reports of possible computer system penetrations, computer viruses, and similar problems. Stopgap software solutions are provided in real-time while robust binary and source level patches are developed. CIAC distributes information about computer related threats to sites that may be vulnerable to those specific threats. CIAC also retains systems consultants, applications specialists, and research scientists to assist researchers in the security arena. _N_e_t_w_o_r_k _a_c_c_e_s_s CIAC facilities are accessible via the Internet for elec- tronic mail and file transfer. _W_h_o _C_a_n _U_s_e _t_h_e _S_e_r_v_i_c_e CIAC is primarily for the use of the DOE community, but is also available to cooperate as needed, and as available, in major security incidents involving other organizations. _________________________ The information in this section is provided in accor- dance with the copyright notice appearing at the front of this guide. 22 November 1989 NNSC Section M.2, Page 1 _M_i_s_c_e_l_l_a_n_e_o_u_s _I_n_f_o_r_m_a_t_i_o_n Further information can be obtained at the address above or through the following contacts at CIAC: Dr. E.
