Re: Guidelines for Deans

["Hart, Lee Anne" <LeeAnne.Hart () MONTGOMERYCOLLEGE EDU>]

This site has two downloadable .pdf files titled Common Sense Guide for
Senior Managers and Common Sense Guide for Home and Individual Users.
They both have some very good information.

Subject: [SECURITY] Guidelines for Deans

 

Good afternoon,

We are in the process of drafting a "short" information security
guideline document for our Deans and I want to solicit information from
this community on the subject.  The guidelines are to be at a high
level, yet meaningful - what should the Deans do to ensure a secure
environment, - what guidance should they give to the school Chairs, -
how can they achieve security goals.......what are the appropriate
management controls (in an open architecture with a lot of school-level
autonomy...?  We have existing policies and procedures that were
approved in our top-level policy (below) and of course we review
information from Educause, NIST and other security organizations (see
below), but condensing all that information into a single (short) todo
document for the Deans is a challenge.  Any pointers or assistance you
can offer would be greatly appreciated.
