LOST DATA RESULTS IN LOST
“….the resources of the Office of Research support a vigorous effort to increase our relevance in the world of discovery and innovation.”UNM’s Research Mission – Untapped Potential (May 16, 2012) • “In this new vision of economic development, business leaders must work with government and with the university to find new solutions. The new world is one of public/private partnerships, and in that world, the most successful outcomes will include UNM. • “One unique resource we have here in New Mexico is our access to National Laboratories, Los Alamos, Sandia and the Air Force Research Lab. Down I-25, we have the White Sands Test Facility and White Sands Missile Range. These facilities offer us significant opportunities for scientific partnerships. Their proximity also distinguishes us from other research universities.” The Installation Address of Robert G. Frank, 21st President of the University of New Mexico (November 18, 2012)

Cyber Warfare • Defense Secretary Leon Panetta and other senior DoD officials have called cyber-attacks one of the greatest threats to America’s national security, and an area in which the U.S. military is the farthest behind. • It is becoming increasingly clear that countries like China and Russia have no misgivings about using cyber warfare as a highly effective and inexpensive means to obtain information and improve their national superiority. • Most people in the U.S. are oblivious to the threat of cyber-attacks and therefore create opportunities for cyber spying and hacking, using weak passwords to protect confidential information and opening documents without knowing the sender. http://www.policymic.com/articles/3645/cyber-warfare-the-war-america-is-losing/featured_writer • CYBER CRIME COST CONSUMERS $110 BILLION LAST YEAR! • 6 BILLION email scams sent out monthly! • Remember: YOUHAVE TO DO SOMETHING TO BE ATTACKED
