Security Breach at US Universities
Everyone keeps jumping on Microsoft, but Microsoft is not the problem.<p>The problem are the Universities, specifically management and the Board of Directors.<p>They see IT as a complete waste of time, they won't fund it properly, they refuse to pay market rates.  Coupled with the fact that the staff behaves like children, pushing back on <i>EVERYTHING</i> that the security teams want to implement.<p>The staff doesn't understand why people need passwords, I'm not kidding, they want just open access to everything from anywhere without any controls, and they throw temper tantrums when any controls are put in place.   Frankly if it wasn't for the safety and security of the University these people would not be able to function in the real world, and I can't image what it must be like for students dealing with these egotistical, bombastic children.
