Security in EDU

5/1/2012

I don't do many posts out here and perhaps I should do more but I thought it time to comment on my transition from corporate to EDU. Many state that EDU is so different from the corporate world and I will tell you having been here for a year now that it is not. From a security perspective the concerns are all the same; PCI, HIPAA, data loss, and data integrity are still the concerns. What is different between Higher Ed and corporate is the emphasis that is put on security. Much like Healthcare, EDU is new to security. It is just just figuring out that security is a serious thing that needs resources, time and commitment.beyond that there are still internal and external threats, architectural issues and policy issues and all of the other concerns. On benefit to EDU that corporate does not have is the benefit of well established collaboration strategies. The world of Higher Ed has been practicing collaboration for years and has extended this into the world of security. Business is just now starting to figure this practice out.
