Security Officers
The Purdue Security Officers Working Group is comprised of one representative from each of Purdue's 30 IT areas and provides technical input and leadership for the SecurePurdue program. The Chief Information Security Officer serves as a facilitator for the group.
The group is responsible for technical coordination of security activities across the Purdue University campuses. This group works in conjunction with IT Purdue Systems Security (PSS) to develop University-wide policies and programs to ensure continued IT security at Purdue. The activities of the group include developing policies, collaborating on ideas and initiatives to strengthen the IT security environment, and communicating within all campus IT groups. Members of the group will also be actively involved in creating new policies, creating new standards, developing new security tools and techniques, and coordinating University-wide communication and training initiatives in basic security practices.
