What Every President Needs To Know

[Rodney Petersen <rpetersen () EDUCAUSE EDU>]

The recent thread concerning "CEO/Cabinet language on security issues"
is a timely topic for the EDUCAUSE/Internet2 Computer and Network
Security Task Force.  Marty Hoag in his message alluded to a scheduled
presentation from the Security Task Force to the Board of the American
Council on Education (ACE).  A presentation to the ACE Board, comprised
of college and university presidents (see
http://www.acenet.edu/about/ace_board.cfm), is scheduled for this
Saturday, Februar 15th, immediately prior to the ACE Annual Meeting.

As the Security Task Force prepares its remarks and refines its messages
for college and university presidents, we would welcome your advice, in
general, and especially your response to the following phrase:

What Every President Needs To Know About Computer and Network Security

Please share your ideas, case studies, anecdotes, experiences, and other
words of wisdom that the Security Task Force should consider as we make
the case before college and university presidents of the need for and
importance of improved computer and network security for higher education.

Please share your responses with the entire Discussion Group.  Any input
received this week will be useful as we finalize our presentation.

Thanks in advance for your assistance,

Rodney Petersen
Security Task Force Coordinator
