Re: Outside Entities Computers

I would think if the ROTC brought up a machine on campus it would be
be a federal (DOD) Gov't machine.  As such, it should have very strict
requirements.  It's possible the staff in your local ROTC are not
aware of this.

Also, do you have a connection policy about machines connecting to
your network? A special VLAN or Lan they can be placed on outside of
your firewall and considered hostile?

The ROTC department here on campus has brought in two of their own computers
to use in their office.  My concern is security (anti virus, windows
updates) on the computer itself and identifying who was logged in and when
in case an issue ever came up.

Would anyone like to share their thoughts or policies on outside entities
(such as ROTC) bringing in their own computer for use in their office on
campus?
