Tune in November 5 for a talk with Erv Blythe, vice president for information technology at Virginia Tech. During this hour-long, free EDUCAUSE Live! Web seminar, Blythe will discuss the IT-related lessons the university has learned from the tragic shootings that took place on campus this past spring, including:
- The impact on the university's communication system
- The notification issue
- Radio communications interoperability
- The complex logistics of accommodating the communications infrastructure and control center needs for a variety of emergency responders and law enforcement
- Identity management and privacy
- Data preservation and computer forensics
He will also consider overarching federal, state, and local policy issues and ways in which the university has managed them.
