4. Revised Planning Assumptions - Security • Security concerns are a top priority as various viruses, worms, etc. have reduced Penn’s productivity levels. • ISC will provide one-time funding to support these critical security issues in FY ‘04. • ISC is seeking supplemental security funding for students from various sources. • Should CSF cover faculty/administrative operational cost starting in FY ‘05?

5. New Security Tools • Tools • Vulnerability scanning and reporting to enable LSPs to identify areas needing additional help. • Self-service web-based tools to scan your computer. • SUS service primarily developed for students on campus and Greek Houses with opt-in available for schools and centers. • Benefits • Shortened time to identify trouble spots. • Assists in work load prioritization. • Reduced infections and avoided system rebuilds.

6. Security Education and Awareness • LSP education and awareness • Provide LSPs with documentation, training and advice about security best practices • End user awareness • Messages crafted so that end users recognize the importance of security • Communications and “how-to” documentation • Benefits • More robust ITA staff that support residents • Ensures LSPs and ITAs the knowledge and skills to fully support their end users’ security needs • Users secure their own desktop • Users ask for help proactively, before it is too late

7. Security Support • TSS Front Line Support for Greek houses, Sansom residents and some off campus students with laptops • Coordinated port traces, disconnections and reconnections with Information Security, N&T and TSS. • Working with students to rebuild infected computers • Benefits • Better response and support

8. Response • Enhanced identification of infected computers, quicker disconnections and reconnections • Benefits • Infected computers pulled off network sooner • Quicker reactivations of network ports • “Healthier” network • More productive work environment

9. FY ‘05 Security Costs

10. Revised Planning Assumptions - Wireless • Wireless is a strategic technology for Penn. • Authentication is run by ISC for the wired network. It is important to have public wireless connectivity. • ISC will provide one-time funding to support centralized wireless authentication. • There is no ongoing cost increases necessary for FY ‘05 and FY ‘06. • It is important to have public IP addresses subsidized by the CSF. • Wireless support costs need to be part of the service delivery.
