Ware" <willis () rand org> fyi -- In the late 60s ARPA and then DSB sponsored a committee to write a doc on security controls. The report became very famous and often referred to as "the Ware Report". Courtesy of John Young, who operates the very efficient and respected archive CRYPTOME, the document is now available in HTML and ZIP formed. Have a look to see how thoroughly the committee understood the issue in those days; especially have a look at Appendix II. I suspect that this document might give some of the latter-day youngsters pause for believing that they invented computer security. SEE also the preface which explains why the original documents was classified; many people have commented on this. willis - - ------- Forwarded Message Date: Fri, 24 Mar 2000 22:31:41 -0500 To: willis () rand org From: John Young <jya () pipeline com> Subject: Your R-609 Report Up Willis, We are pleased to have completed digitizing your 1970 DSB report, "Security Controls for Computer Systems:" http://cryptome.org/sccs.htm (265K) And a Zipped version: http://cryptome.org/sccs.zip (176K) Again, thanks very much, first, for preparing the document then and, now, for sending it.
