Safe Computing: Learn What it Takes
October 3, 2007
October is National Cyber Security Month. In recognition, Computing and
Information Services is sponsoring a series of events around the theme, “Safe
Computing Doesn’t Happen by Accident.”
The series will feature expert presentations, a Safe Computing Fair and
class, and distribution and display of educational materials.
All events are open to the university community and most are geared toward
a general, non-technical audience. No registration is required.
UNH managers and their staff are urged to attend these events and it is
recommended that each office send at least one person to the safe computing
class to learn about protecting confidential information.
Free to all UNH computer users, the class will be held twice: Oct. 10,
from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. (MUB 340) and Oct. 16, from 11 a.m. to 12:30
p.m. (MUB 302).
Speakers and panel discussion members will include, among others, Bud
Fitch (N.H. deputy attorney general), Peter Lamonica (forensic computer
specialist, BeNetSafe.Org), Tracy Mitrano (director of IT policy, Cornell
University), Barbara Chung (U.S. education division, Microsoft) and Tom
Franke, assistant vice president and CIO of CIS.
The speaker’s series will be held in the MUB Theater 1.
