D@R 06x01 - Security Vendors & You

D@R 06x05 - UNC CAUSE 2022 - Open Doors, Zero Trust

Recorded in front of a live audience at UNC CAUSE in October, 2022! The Zero Trust Framework raises valid questions about risk reduction. But, as one CISO used to say, "we have to trust someone eventually, right?" Or do we? Universities, are built on a philosophy of openness and enrichment of public understanding. How do we preserve the public's trust while securing our resources, and is there a philosophical discussion to have around doing so?

D@R 06x03 - Privacy, Policy, and Privacy Policies

Security and privacy are often mentioned hand-in-hand in our industry, but they're actually very different fields with different considerations and concerns--and the policies applying to one are not necessarily meant to address those of the other. Charlie and Michael welcome Kim Stahl, Senior Policy and Process Lead for UNC Chapel Hill's Information Technology Services, to discuss privacy, policy, and privacy policies.  Contact us: dataatrest@unc.edu [dataatrest@unc.edu] Musical credit: Pixelland Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

D@R 06x02 - Communicating with Students & Young Users

Charlie and Michael have discussed communicating security risks and strategies to older users and at-risk users, but what about students and younger users? We welcome guests Lila Davidson and Louise Flinn from the UNC Chapel Hill ITS Communications team to discuss things to consider when we do outreach focusing on students and others on the cusp of their professional lives.  Contact us: dataatrest@unc.edu [dataatrest@unc.edu] Musical credit: Pixelland Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

D@R 06x01 - Security Vendors & You

Anyone who works in information security knows that we, perhaps more than any other IT sector, are reliant on a forest of vendors, each promising the moon and often duplicating others' capabilities. Join Charlie and Michael for a frank discussion of the best and worst parts of managing those vendor relationships and what we look to gain from them.  Contact us: dataatrest@unc.edu [dataatrest@unc.edu] Musical credit: Pixelland Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/
