Computing Plan
Web strategy (AS writes: The web strategy group has become moribund. I originally proposed this group (2011) to discuss our entire web presence (intranet, top-level school site, institute sites, home pages etc) from both the content and technical delivery perspectives. No one "branch" of the School "owns" this space, hence the original group included reps from both teaching, research, admin and computing. I propose that we re-form this group with similar representation.)
College security policy - mobile devices (AS writes: The College security policy strongly recommends that people encrypt their mobile devices if they use those devices for work, particularly if handling medium to high risk data. The recent University Bring-Your-Own-Device policy mandates that you encrypt any mobile device if it is being used to handle medium to high risk data. Some people have just stopped using their own mobile devices for work because their device does not support encryption and they don't need to be able to do so. Others feel that they are under pressure, particularly when travelling on work business, to be responsive to eg. work email. Other parts of the University provide such staff with University owned devices - should we do likewise. (Note: we could limit to just paying for the hardware).)
Strategy for specialist computing support of IPAB and perhaps other groups that make little use of DICE. (Passed on from Strategy Committee, raised by Barbara Webb. More information needed, if so what? Roll in with DICE review, or something else?)
