TRANSITS Materials Conditions of Use

TRANSITS aims to provide affordable, high-quality training to both new and experienced CSIRT personnel, as well as individuals with a bona-fide interest in establishing a CSIRT. The training course materials have been collaboratively developed by members of TERENA’s task force TF-CSIRT and are frequently updated in order to ensure they remain relevant to existing practices.

These materials may be used, in whole or part, for training courses subject to the conditions outlined below. All materials remain the copyright of TERENA, although individual authors and/or their employers may also hold copyright in certain items.
