Effective Security Practices Guide

Balancing
the Need for Security and Open, Collaborative
Networking
This
resource is being created to provide practical approaches to preventing,
detecting, and responding to security problems in a wide range of higher
education environments. This online service is designed with colleges and
universities in mind, balancing our need for security with the need for an open,
collaborative networking environment. Also, because one of the overarching
concerns in college and university information technology (IT) departments is a
lack of resources, an effort is made to provide low-cost solutions. The target
audiences are those responsible for information security in colleges and
universities and information technology staff who implement and manage security
measures. Recognizing that many institutions have initiated or are in the
process of developing IT security programs and policies, an effort is made
throughout this resource to present practices that are useful at each stage of
the developmental process.
