Lessons from Columbine: More Security, Outreach in Schools
fromUSA TODAY
It's a safe bet that few of the USA's nearly 50 million public school students know or remember much about Columbine — fewer than half of current students were old enough to be in school on the morning of April 20, 1999. This spring's high school seniors were in second grade in 1999 — and more than half of current elementary schoolers weren't even born. Yet Columbine — and to a lesser extent other school shootings in the late 1990s and early 2000s — has changed how students experience school. A decade later, the attacks have had the odd effect of making school both a harder and a softer place. More

Managing Security Systems via the Internet
from Health News Digest
A project manager for a yacht that was under construction on a dry dock was planning to install expensive equipment and wanted to secure the yacht before that began. In the beginning, this meant traveling to the dock two or three days a week to disarm the alarm system and oversee the work. Yet with a new kind of system, he could turn off the alarm from his own home computer--and no longer have to travel to the job site to give access to the workers. In addition, he was able to give each worker--many of whom had single-day tasks aboard the yacht--his or her own pass code to arm and disarm the system. When their specific jobs were complete, he was able to delete their passwords himself. And he could verify that the system was armed from his home, giving him peace of mind. More
