Federal officials have awakened to the realization that they may have
funded the computers most likely to be used in terrorist cyberattacks.
Universities that deployed the vulnerable systems have gotten the same
message. The first step in solving the problem is to add language to
federal contracts and grants requiring technical security standards
be met on all federally supported computers. If you are involved in
security of university-based computers, your comments and suggestions
can help. Please review the draft language in the RFC at the end of
this NewsBites and get back to us by Friday.
