We have a PKI and encourage usage of S/MIME. My involvement is from the email side of things, not policy. You can find policy and contact info here: http://www.cio.wisc.edu/security/digitalCert/ Jesse UW Madison Fusco, David (FUSCO) wrote:
Hello - We are investigating the expanded use of email encryption software on our campus and wondered how many others use a solution for this. We do have several copies of PGP for the transfer or some sensitive information, but how far do you take it? Should every email from a faculty member to a student that has a grade in it be encrypted? I would think that most institutions do not use encryption for this type of process, but how far have you taken it? We are considering it for the encryption of obvious messages, such as financial data, health data, etc. Thanks in advance, Dave. David J.
