Found In Egroup: CIO \ view thread
We are having a discussion regarding the management of student workers on our campus and if we should or should not require student workers to use a separate work account when they have access to campus services and data. Or do you give them access using their general student account? The primary ...

RE: evidence of the growth of workload and expectations on an IT organization

I'm wonder if CDS is structured to effectively respond to this question, but I admit I've not participated in CDS. This is little doubt that expectations and workloads have outpaced staffing and resources in most IT organizations, I assume (maybe hope) there are some exceptions. Examples ...

RE: SIS Data Retention policies

Thank you for this information. I like the information provided in terms of stating the authority. I'm still debating what constitutes a System of Record. For example, your policies provide a schedule but do not specify how the retention is performed. Of course, that isn't the role of the ...

Curious if other institutions have implemented retention policies on email and chat. We have faculty and staff that like to keep everything forever and use email as storage. ------------------------------ FloydDavenport Assistant VP for IT fdavenport@semo.edu ------------------------------

RE: Microsoft requiring Authenticator App for MFA

Paul, In case you don't know, I believe you can disable the implementation of this change in your administrative interface. Then you can decide how to roll it out. That is our plan. Of course the trick will be not allowing it to sit for the next couple of years (unless Microsoft takes that option ...

Microsoft requiring Authenticator App for MFA

Posted By Floyd Davenport 09-15-2023 10:32:00 AM
Found In Egroup: CIO \ view thread
I'm interested in how other institutions are responding to Microsoft's recent announcement to require users to move to the authenticator app for MFA... moving away from SMS and voice methods for MFA authentication. We support this change. We understand voice and SMS are not as secure and we have been ...

We've been approached several times, but we're not thrilled with making a conversion to a NATed campus. I'd also be interested in hearing from any institutions who have made that change, the process, outcomes, lessons learned. Thank you / Floyd Davenport AVP for Information Technology Information ...

Cybersecurity Insurance: Where are we headed?

Found In Egroup: CIO \ view thread
Like many of you, we are working to renew our cybersecurity insurance for campus. As each year the requirements set to obtain affordable insurance (or obtain it at all) gets more difficult, I'm hearing different opinions of its value. If you're like my campus, you've implemented MFA and other security ...

I've not see an example of the Power Platform used to generate pixel perfect forms like an I-9 or W-2. Would be interested if a straight-forward solution exist. / Floyd Davenport AVP for Information Technology Information Technology T (573) 651-2030 fdavenport@semo.edu

I was a little disappointed there were no pre-conference workshops in this area at EDUCAUSE. I would think this would be a popular workshop. / Floyd Davenport AVP for Information Technology Information Technology T (573) 651-2030 fdavenport@semo.edu
