When ECAR studied IT security in 2003, we discovered that despite efforts to develop a secure IT infrastructure in higher education, uneven management awareness and a culture that equated good IT security with the curtailment of academic freedom constrained IT security options and choices. The results of this 2006 study of IT security in higher education demonstrate that there has been a sea change in less than three years. This study not only assesses the current condition of IT security practice, but documents changes in practice over time among a constant set of respondents. Among 492 total survey respondents, fully 204 institutions responded to both the 2003 and the 2005 surveys.</p> http://connect.educause.edu/display/37614#comments Authentication Authorization Documents Contributed by ECAR Firewalls Identity Management Network Security and Applications Security Management Security Policies Security Risk Assessment and Analysis Single Sign On Roadmaps Articles, Papers, and Reports Fri, 29 Sep 2006 13:10:04 -0500 drupal 37614 at http://connect.educause.edu
