| Course Content | Fermilab Computer Security Policies and Practices that affect all computer users at the Laboratory.
Computer Security is not simply a set of rigid rules which are to be memorized any applied unthinkingly. Rather, it is an attitude consisting of general principles that, when applied appropriately, allows you to deduce the correct behavior even in new and unforeseen circumstances. This flexibility and agility is an important part of our security strategy, which requires us to be able to respond quickly to rapidly changing threat environments, with the lab computing complex under virtually constant attack from the outside internet. These general principles are summarized in the lab Policy on Computing, which should allow you to determine the correct responses to the test questions even if they are not explicitly discussed in the policy. Taking the test itself is an important part of the security training. You will be notified of any incorrect answers at the completion of the test and given the reasons why the desired answer is the correct one, which in some cases will include links back to the appropriate sections of the computing policy. |
