Promoting a healthy skepticism with regard to information processing. The development of a computer security program for a collaborative research environment.

摘要

Computer security professionals and members of collaborative research environments have conflicting objectives with respect to computer and network access, and different understandings of what constitutes a ''reasonable'' organization. These differences create tension between the two communities and make the achievement of an acceptable level of security a matter of some difficulty in such environments. We consider some of the differences and present the elements of a program aimed at promoting sensible computer and network security in the research milieu.
