 IT-Director.com: Plugging the holes in porous university ne
According to Jackson Ratcliffe, executive director of information technology at the Dominican University of California, the security situation in colleges and universities is more like the wild wild west than anything he has ever seen in the corporate world.
Having started working at the university around one year ago, after a couple of decades managing corporate IT systems, Ratcliffe was amazed at the extent to which students were infected with computer viruses and worms, rendering the networks in the dormitories almost impossible to use.
However, in the education sector, whilst administrators have control over the computers available in the school's labs, and can therefore control what software and services are being used on those resources, many students tend to carry their own laptops and have full administrator rights over what they install on them.
