We tie this in with our Corporate Computing and Information Security Policy. In that we have "data classification" levels and proper handling of that data is dictated by the classification level, not the system it is on or situation it is in. For example, if we have a confidential piece of information that level has a dictated set of handling characteristics / instructions that include data must remain encrypted at all times, No dissemination to non-LCCS personnel without a signed Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) etc. Mark A.

Having looked around a bit, I haven't been able to find the approach others have taken. I'm not sure if this is because institutions aren't specifically addressing this issue, or if I'm just not looking in the right places. Any and all input appreciated, thanks! :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Brian Basgen Information Security Pima Community College ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the LCCS Email Security System. ______________________________________________________________________
