I've been getting that lately with Firefox 1.1.  You can right click and
save as just fine.  It must be something with browser-Adobe interaction.

and cannot be repaired" adobe message. Anyone else experience this?
Thx.

Hi Jarrod,

Not exactly what you are looking for, but have you seen the Corporate
Information Security Working Group: Report of the Best Practices and
Metrics Team (http://www.educause.edu/ir/library/pdf/CSD3661.pdf)

Might be useful for identifying possible KPI.

Subject: [SECURITY] KPIs in IT Security Policy


Hi all,

I am doing a review of our IT Security policy framework. As a
part of a previous review conducted by an external group, we
were advised that our Security Policies were rather broad in
the sense we did not have a measurable set of Key Performance
Indicators (KPIs) to accurately assess the response and
performance of the IT Security group.

However in doing in a review of some of our competitors
within Australia I noted that, to the best of my knowledge,
neither had any of them!

I am curious to know if any of the other universities and
higher institutions subscribed to this list have developed
any such KPIs as a part of their IT Security framework, and
if so could you provide some links and/or insight into how
they developed said framework and KPIs. If not, perhaps some
insight as to why none were stated.

Thanks in advance,
