This week's free Tech Briefing Mobile Device Management Today -- 2 - 3:30 p.m. LOCATION: Turing Auditorium (Polya Hall, Room 111) PRESENTERS: Ammy Woodbury, IT Services This briefing covers university policy regarding mobile devices and how to protect your iOS device using Stanford's award-winning Mobile Device Manager (MDM). MDM allows you to quickly set up your Stanford email, calendar, and VPN. It also configures your device for the ISO's security best practices. All of this is done in a quick (under 2 minutes!) set up that helps protect your data and protect yourself. Mobile devices like the iPhone and iPad have become ubiquitous on campus. Mobile devices are expected to outsell traditional personal computers this year. Unfortunately, many users are unaware of their inherent security risks. Security features common on desktop and laptop computers are inconsistently applied across mobile device platforms. On a laptop, we have come to rely on anti-virus software safeguarding our system, but few mobile devices have such software. While most personal computers on campus are password-protected, few of us configure our mobile phones with a password or PIN to protect it against unauthorized use. And, since mobile devices are easily (and frequently) misplaced, the potential for unauthorized access increases.

Message-ID: <005701cd6520$2b80c2b0$82824810$@edu> Hi all, I am the director of Simbios, an NIH-funded center for physics-based simulation of biological structures here at Stanford. We have developed and maintain a project hosting website for the biocomputational community called Simtk.org. The site itself is open-source and integrates many open-source components, and many projects on the site are sharing open-source tools through it. Currently, there are over 21,000 members and over 600 projects. We are looking for a new web developer to continue developing the site. I'm looking for suggestions on where to advertise this opening aside from the big names like dice.com and monster.com. I think that there may be smaller, more targeted mailing lists and/or job boards that would be ideal for listing this type of position and wondered if anyone on this mailing list had suggestions. The job opening is at http://bit.ly/Nnx1xN if anyone is curious about the details. Thanks in advance for your help! Best, Joy --- Joy P.
