Context

Cornell employees (staff and academic staff alike) must not expose sensitive data belonging to others. Not only is this Taking such precautions is not just a good thing to do, it is also university policy.

One way we do this is to not have sensitive data on devices we have the authority to put data on. This could be our the computers you use (Cornell-owned and , personal, public systems), smart phones, electronic pocket organizerstablets, etc.

To assist each of us in finding such data on our the computers we each use, we can use Spirion (formerly Identity Finder) to look for some types of data which may be sensitive.

Implementing a data cleanup process is more involved than just choosing the proper scan tool:

Chemistry IT's actions to date

Update Spring 2018

  • A&S is testing their server-based solution.

Prior actions

...

and considerations

  • Manage a project to address this need within Admin staff areas in March and April 2013, and ~ every two years thereafter. For the Identity Finder component, do this by individual machine (not using any server-based component).
    • Await A&S's server-based solution decision before addressing how best to support Research areas' needs. A&S IT staff are conferring with Human Ecology; have already conferred with CALS.
