Abstract
From January through December 2003, the CERT/CC received 542,754 email messages, and more than 934 hotline calls reporting computer security incidents or requesting information. CERT received 3,784 vulnerability reports and handled 137,529 computer security incidents during this period.
The CERT/CC published 28 advisories in 2003. Among the criteria for developing an advisory is the urgency of the problem, the potential impact of intruder exploitation, and the existence of a software patch or workaround. On release day, we send advisories to a mailing list, post them to the USENET newsgroup comp.security.announce and make them available on the CERT web site.
