Re: More specifics

["Piscitello, Frank" <frank () WCUPA EDU>]

At West Chester U, the campus users can file complaints with the Help
Desk, who in turn contact my office.  Depending on who the "actor" is, I
will notify Human Resources, Student Affairs, or Academic Affairs.  Once
notified, either a warning will be sent from the VP of the area, or
further investigation will be performed.  This will involve my area by
taking an image of the drive in question.  Once the image is obtained, I
analyze it to determine if materials are being collected specifically,
or possibly by accident (pop-ups).  I then write up my research and
re-submit it back to the VP/Dean as appropriate.
 
If I determine that the material may be truely illegal, I notify our
campus police, and also my contact with the State Police Computer Crime
group.  I then turn the materials over to the police (with appropriate
subpoena's filed).

I should have been more specific in my request.  I apologize.  Would
anyone like to share their formal procedures for dealing with network
misuse cases involving obscenity/pornography (adult, run of the mill
type)?  I would like to know how other universities handle this problem.
Thank you.
