Computer Security Resource Center (CSRC) is designed to collect and disseminate computer security information and resources to help users, systems administrators, managers, and security professionals better protect their data and systems. A primary goal of the CSRC is to raise awareness of all computer systems users -- from novice to expert -- about computer security. This is perhaps the most important way of improving information systems security.
