Artemis – CERT Polska verifies the cybersecurity of Polish organizations

CERT Polska launched Artemis, a centralized scanning initiative to continually assess Polish public-sector web services (e.g., schools, hospitals, local authorities) for common vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. Operating from a single identifiable IP and sharing results privately with administrators, early scans of nearly 2,000 domains revealed hundreds of instances of outdated software, publicly accessible configuration files containing passwords, exposed backups/data, and improperly configured directories—insights used to prioritize remediation and strengthen national cyber resilience.
