Remote Computing Audit/Findings (handout): Aaron discussed the internal audit findings that resulted in a two-year compliance plan for remote computing at UC Denver. Using a two-year phase-in, the plan includes the following key points: Consolidate and simplify IT policies as part of current campus initiatives. Develop new policy language that explicitly covers the definition of remote computing and how devices are secured. Require that all devices connecting to campus (via a non-campus remote network) have passwords, security patches and are encrypted. Faculty, staff and students should select a smart phone that can be encrypted at their next contract renewal. A list of example devices will be published on the IT Services website soon. Next Steps: Aaron will revise his handout prior to our next meeting. 2. Pooled Courses Faculty On-line Grading: Teri and Martina discussed plans for online grading in the new ISIS. MSCD instructors teaching common pool classes will need access to the system. The group had questions about online grading: Will there be training for instructors? What security measures will be in place? Will MSCD instructors have a ucdenver.edu address? Will there be costs? How will grade changes be handled? How will this affect other courses that aren’t part of the common pool? Next Steps: Teri and Martina will discuss plans in more detail at a future meeting.
