| Who We Are |
|
Network Security Services researches new trends and industry happenings in order
to protect the SU network. We monitor newsgroups and
mailing lists for any new vulnerabilities which may affect SU network and
its constituency.
We keep up with these outbreaks in order to ensure that
Southern University users are aware of possible problems
and protect them appropriately. |

| Who We Do |
• Analyze daily network scans. Contact Internet
Service Providers regarding attacking machines.
Investigate network traffic for possible break-ins. Aid
in emergency response and disaster recovery, track down
and resolve serious incidents, and coordinate with the
campus judiciary system and law-enforcement agencies.
Gather files for possible legal action and ensure
compliance with chain of evidence procedures for use in
court cases.
• Evaluate the security of Southern University’s
computers, networks, and data as well as personal
workstations, through general network scans and other
methods to determine current vulnerability status.
• Educate SUBR community on how to safely use
technology. Identify and promote "best practices"
regarding security of data and systems.
• Send alerts for current viruses, attacks, and
other security vulnerabilities.
• Research and implement new ideas for classes
and security initiatives.
• Review new communications applications and
suggest secure applications for use at the University
and in University projects. Institute campus standards
for security, and review applicable policies and
procedures in the context of these standards. |
