- Establishment of a national CERT at each OIC-CERT member state;
- Creation and enhancement of common standards and regulations;
- Development and implementation of technical solutions and technologies;
- Capacity building;
- Promotion of international cooperation and coordination in incident management; and
- Promotion of OIC-CERT at the regional and international level.
To date, the OIC-CERT consists of 41 members from 21 countries.
