Updated · 3-minute read
In one sentence
CERT-FR, part of ANSSI, publishes advisories and alerts about the vulnerabilities that threaten information systems in France.
Advisories and alerts
An advisory reports vulnerabilities and their fixes. An alert reports a serious threat, often already exploited, that calls for immediate action.
Why it's useful
CERT-FR alerts can cite vulnerabilities before the international databases have indexed all of them.
And LibWatch?
LibWatch includes CERT-FR advisories and alerts on PHP and matches them against your projects' PHP version.
