Re: HECVAT Users List

[John Forker <jforker () MAINE EDU>]

We are using the HECVAT-lite at the University of Maine System.  We have
are using it, unmodified, but supplement it with a few other questions -
especially around non-cloud components.  We accept the full HECVAT.  As
stated, even the lite version can be heavy-duty for some situations so we
evaluate the data types (sensitivity) and volumes and require it only when
applicable.

I completed the form to be listed and encourage wider spread use to have a
uniform tool for vendors.
