Partially based on this thread, we have added a search for "in:scheduled" to our post-compromised account checks, alongside of the filter, signature, and other checks that have been developed over the course of time. Performing that search on an individual mailbox, or on a larger scale via Vault does ...

RE: Help with resizing our current data center

Mevin - As you indicate, this is a rather complex question, and difficult to answer even with all of the information you provide. I would be happy to provide additional thoughts off-list, but I would strongly recommend that you engage with an engineering firm that has specific experience in Data Center ...

RE: Google vs M365 Comparison

Molly - I think the decision on which platform is used as the primary is very much a cultural decision and depends on how and when you gave up email and calendar control to one of the services. In our environment, the storage allocations end up being fairly equivalent between the two platforms (when ...

Anusheh - The University of Maine System recently modernized our printing environment, including "fleet optimization". You can see the overview and vision of or project at https://tdx.maine.edu/TDClient/2624/Portal/KB/ArticleDet?ID=138907 This project was definitely more than replacing Uniflow with ...

RE: Staffing in individual Identity and Access Management teams- Size and Job roles

Doug - Overall the University of Maine System is about the same size (though your numbers are my headcounts, not FTE numbers). The challenge in answering your question is: What do you consider to be identity and access management? If you scope it based on the initial T1 Help Desk ticket assignment, ...

RE: Google Bard

I would say the pressure is mounting in our environment. For better or worse, we are prevented from enabling it in our environment because the explicit removal of privacy and data locality provisions are a non-starter from a law and policy standpoint. Of course, that likely means that most ...

RE: That one vendor's email habits...

Posted By Steven Premeau 07-25-2023 01:39:36 PM
Found In Egroup: Google Workspace \ view thread
Our position is that any reputable vendor needs to know how to deliver email to Gmail. We will work with them on the necessary (subdomain) DNS entries required, etc. In this case, I'm not sure that you CAN override the error (without external mail handlers), but ultimately the risk to the organization ...

We have been able to vastly extend our SPF record by using the "exists" mechanism and a locally maintained RBL lookup zone (i.e. 'exists:%(i).spf-exists.maine.edu') We not able (or willing) to list the sites that want to whitelist any potential email delivery service host in the public cloud providers, ...

RE: Inactive Duo user accounts

David - The University of Maine System has just begun its rollout of Duo, currently to ~160 faculty / staff and ~1,000 student accounts. I think our answer to your enrollment question is "all of the above". We are funded for "full" faculty / staff deployment system-wide (~6,000). Only students requesting ...

RE: Running Oracle PeopleSoft PeopleTools middle tier on Red Hat Linux

Posted By Steven Premeau 04-25-2022 04:04:32 PM
Found In Egroup: Administrative Systems Management \ view thread
We have been running all of the tiers on the (redhat-based) Oracle Enterprise Linux. We do not (currently) purchase an OS support agreement, but have been able to avoid most OS compatibility questions when opening PeopleSoft support tickets by using Oracle's OS. My "expert" in why we did has left our ...

This is configured in our domain. https://www.maine.edu/information-technology/support/it-resources-and-tools/collaborative-tools/zoom-resources-and-support/ Currently, we have only used this for Zoom resources, but it is within the template/framework of our IT pages, so there are options should we ...

Recommendations for MFA Hardware Tokens

Found In Egroup: Identity and Access Management \ view thread
We are in the initial stages of a MFA deployment (utilizing Duo) that will ultimately cover ~35,000 faculty, staff, and student accountholders. Wherever possible, we are planning to encourage the use of the Duo mobile application, but know that there will be any number of scenarios where that will not ...
