Is it legal what DIVD is doing?
Why did I receive an email from DIVD / CSIRT?
If we find a vulnerability, we’ll set up a case with all the details we know and how to patch this vulnerability. Then we scan known IP adresses to see if they’re vulnerable and if that’s the case we’ll send out an email to every vulnerable IP adress.
Our emails are personally written by one of our researchers and contain a link to the casefile on the csirt.divd.nl site.
Who works for DIVD?
Most of our volunteers work in cybersecurity as their daily job, this could be at a comercial security company, government or as a freelancer. Some of our volunteers don’t work in security at all but have great interest in making the digital world safer.
