The correct answer is

ICERT

The national agency that responds to computer security incidents as and when they occur is the Indian Computer Emergency Response Team, abbreviated as ICERT (CERT-In). It operates under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology and is the national nodal agency for cyber security incidents.

CAT normally refers to a tribunal or a common admission test, not a security agency. CDAC (Centre for Development of Advanced Computing) is an R&D organisation for computing technologies, not the incident-response body. CCA (Controller of Certifying Authorities) regulates digital signature certifying authorities, but is not the incident-response team.

Therefore the agency responding to computer security incidents is ICERT.

Correct answer: ICERT
