Subject: Nexus security issues

UCIST would like the Waterloo Nexus Administrators Group (WNAG) to 
prepare a brief report for presentation at UCIST before the end of the
current 
semester.  The focus of this report is to be on security issues surrounding
(1) 
the break ins to Nexus over the Christmas and early new year and 
preventive measures to minimize the likelihood of this happening in the 
future, and (2) current Nexus policies on user authentication, and password 
rules especially at the OU (!) and Domain (!!) levels.

You can get UCIST meeting dates from Melissa Conrad; we meet every other
Friday, and our next meeting is this Friday, February 21.  (But we don't
expect a report that quickly!)
