Traffic Light Protocol (TLP)
TLP (Traffic Light Protocol) is a standardized system for labeling sensitive information based on how widely it can be shared. It enables secure exchange of threat intelligence while protecting sensitive data from unintended disclosure. TibCERT uses the TLP as defined by FIRST(Forum of Incident Response and Security Teams) and it is a part of TibCERT policy in terms of information sharing between our core stakeholders.
