Organisation
At this moment all hospitals (ranging from academic “UMCs”, top clinical “STZ” to “General” hospitals) as well as mental healthcare institutions ("GGZ") can register with Z-CERT as a participant (constituency). Z-CERT will be extending its services to other healthcare providers in the near future. Z-CERT closely collaborates with other (inter-)national CERTs, such as the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) and the Information Security Service (ISS) for the municipalities, on a daily basis. Z-CERT is a foundation with a not-for-profit objective.
