Why schools are hitting the books on cloud computing
Grazed from Mass High Tech. Author: Bob Burke.
Cloud computing is becoming increasingly popular in higher education, normally a slow adopter of new technology. Cloud computing can be used for business continuity planning, or storing archived copies of data off to a cloud storage area – even students’ papers and music that can be stored and retrieved whenever they want. This reduces hardware, software, and personnel costs and saves on space, repair, and electricity. It also allows the school to stay current with technology and enables multiple staff to view admissions simultaneously — in or out of the office.
However, the issue of security cannot be overstated in a cloud computing scenario. In reality, security is less about the nuts and bolts of how to protect the data than the idea that administrators must determine who actually owns the data and who has access to it. All this information is being put on these machines out there “somewhere”; thus, the college administrator needs to know who is administering these machines and who has access to them…
