BCoE Creates Internet Safety Checklist
The University of New Hampshire Broadband Center of Excellence (BCoE) has created a checklist for individuals to use in assessing their vulnerability to threats originating from their use of the Internet wherever they are linked – home or public place.
“At a time when hackers create chaos and are able to gain remote control of automated cars or in-home baby monitors, it is incumbent for us all to take responsibility for Internet safety and not passively trust governments, organizations and service providers to do it for us,” said BCoE Executive...

The University of New Hampshire’s Broadband Center of Excellence (BCoE) wishes our readers and contributors a very merry Christmas and happy and prosperous New Year.

We continue to believe this technology, with support from large corporations, could represent the best chance for deploying universally available broadband. But lots more work needs to be done on development, standardization and ultimately creation of affordable hardware.

We have a brief report on the anticipated vote below, with a link to some extensive BCoE work we reported on in July.

Myth or Reality of Municipal Broadband Network!

More towns and local governments appear to be studying such endeavors as they see the economic and social value that is supported by more ubiquitous and affordable Internet access.
