Data Loss Protection (DLP) technology is about understanding an organization's sensitive data profile through content-aware analysis. Context awareness analysis includes understanding time, place, source, destination, user identity, and other metadata that aids in tracking information-handling violations. Thus, an important benefit of using a DLP product is the ability to raise the awareness of information use policies among all users within the enterprise. DLP fundamental goals are to control restricted information — where it's stored, where it travels, and how it is used — identify where restricted information resides within the enterprise, and motivate behavioral changes in users to stem inappropriate information use.

The Office of the CIO (OCIO) is closing in on providing the university with a succinct catalog of current value added services. The OCIO Service Catalog, located at cio.osu.edu/services, contains a listing of services broken down by category that can be sorted alphabetically. During this fiscal year, the OCIO will finalize service descriptions, service level commitments, service delivery expectations, processes for ordering, and pricing, and apply edits to the Service Catalog accordingly. Our next step is to better understand from the university community, which new services the OCIO should focus on, which existing services should we revisit, and which services we should sunset.

The Enterprise Applications team within the Office of the CIO has developed an Enterprise Applications Roadmap as a comprehensive planning tool that depicts the key business strategies, the major applications projects that support those strategies, and the key infrastructure projects required to enable the successful completion of the application projects. This roadmap will be a living document that covers a rolling five year window. It will serve as a valuable planning tool by visually representing the timelines for major projects and helping to illustrate the dependencies and linkages that exist amongst them. As an additional tool, a comprehensive application project portfolio has been created that additionally captures all medium and major projects over the next five years, plus those projects and repetitive activities required to maintain the ongoing viability of key applications (patches, upgrades, administrative and regulatory processes, etc.). Can the Enterprise Applications Roadmap be used to enhance the planning process for other IT organizations on campus?

The Identity and Access Management (IdM) Release 1 Foundation project implements the foundational elements of an IdM environment. While the general university community will experience enhanced password self-service and recovery for Kerberos passwords, other components, such as data cleansing and building connectors to core university systems, will involve the support of our university's business and technical areas. This session will focus on impacts of Release 1 components and answer: what will you gain by having the IdM foundation in place?

How can we successfully migrate the university community to a new e-mail and calendaring service? In December, university leaders approved the Enterprise E-mail Project, which will deliver a university-wide e-mail and calendaring service. Preparations are underway to roll the new service out, with the initial focus on current central e-mail and calendaring users. A successful roll out will require everyone's involvement. This session focuses on the first phase of the roll out plan and is specifically targeted to current central e-mail and calendaring users and the IT staff that support them. Session participants will review the roll out plan, learn what they can do to prepare for the roll out, and provide feedback as to what they need to ensure their successful migration to the new service.

How can we effectively and efficiently mature IT Security? Over the past several years, IT Security at Ohio State has evolved as a patchwork of policies, standards, technologies and projects largely driven by responses to events. Improving the OSU security posture requires using a best practice framework to manage the gaps and overlaps, and guide risk mitigation activities. This session provides the opportunity to discuss the potential effects on individual units and to solicit valuable feedback and input. Session participants will gain increased understanding of the OSU IT Security Framework and its application to departments. How can we effectively and efficiently mature IT Security?

How can cloud computing support the university’s business? The cloud computing guidelines project will develop resources that help members of the Ohio State community make informed choices about using common non-contracted "cloud computing" services to support various aspects of the university's business. This session will review and solicit feedback about the context, goals, objectives and plans for the project. How can cloud computing support the university’s business?

What does the Identity and Access Management Program (IdM) Foundation project mean to your unit? Identity and access management is the combination of business processes, technology, and policies used to manage information about a person throughout the lifecycle of his or her affiliation with OSU. Information is used to provide individuals with the right access to the resources they need and for which they are approved. The IdM program has defined key components of identity and access management at Ohio State, and prioritized these into five releases. This session will focus on the initial release – the Foundation project – and the activities included in this release. Discussion will include the current process validation and requirements gathering, Active Directory, and IdM-related recommendations. Participants will gain an understanding of the overall IdM program and Foundation activities. What does the Identity and Access Management Program (IdM) Foundation project mean to your unit?

OSU faces increasing negative public exposure and image impacts from SPAM and phishing attacks. Blacklisting OSU from peer educational institutions, Internet Service Providers, and industry web sites damages the university reputation. Addressing the SPAM and phishing attacks requires tactical and strategic focus areas. This panel will focus on what the OSU community is currently doing to prevent phishing attacks and its action plan for preventing future attacks from the operational, security, local IT support and user perspectives. Participants will provide input into the action plan and feedback on how to address this problem. OSU faces increasing negative public exposure and image impacts from SPAM and phishing attacks.

Enterprise Architecture (EA) continues to evolve and be adopted within organizations. The role of EA at OSU is new. Developing an EA program requires collecting input from key stakeholders. The breakout session focuses upon collecting feedback in establishing the definition, value, scope, stakeholders, role, responsibilities, and deliverables, and a real world example using the EA recommendation approach. EA recommendations leverage an objective approach by describing the issue or problem, alternatives, recommendation, justification, assumptions, motivation, and implications. Details of establishing an EA Active Directory recommendation will involve subsequent meetings and discussions. Participants can expect to gain a better understanding of the EA role and the approach to establishing EA recommendations. The breakout session is planned to be interactive and solicit open and honest feedback. Enterprise Architecture (EA) continues to evolve and be adopted within organizations.

This session will clarify expectations on service availability when major outages occur. We will discuss common misconceptions about the disaster recovery process; clarify definitions of high availability, service level agreements, and recovery time objectives; and provide awareness of related initiatives. We will discuss ways to improve two-way communications during times of emergencies and outages. We will also seek feedback on how can we set clear expectations with the broader community of service availability during major interruptions and improve communications during outages.

Recognizing the need for a uniform approach to end-user administrative rights, a group of faculty and IT support staff facilitated by CIO Security staff have formulated a preferred regulation that addresses this issue. The same group is also reformulating the Minimum Computing Security Standard (MCSS) seeking to retain the elements that enhance security while discarding those that are contradictory or that make compliance with the standard difficult.
