How the CERT/CC Notes screensaver works

The saver reads the source described above and draws it on a canvas — no account, no tracking.

Vulnerability notes from the CERT Coordination Center at Carnegie Mellon, key-less. CERT/CC writes one only when a flaw needs coordinating across several vendors — a shared protocol, a common library, a chipset everybody ships — so the feed is slow by design.

It refreshes on a schedule, so what you see stays current.

Colours and any options can be changed in settings; nothing is stored beyond your own browser.
