The greatest risk in computer security is the user/keyboard interface. This means you. When you sit down to your computer and log onto the Internet, this is the time when computer systems are at highest risk for problems. Most folks don’t intentionally put computer systems at risk. It is because many people don’t understand the significance of what they are doing that causes the risk. Hence, the creation of this web site. The more you understand the better for you and your organization.

 

     There are items of interest for the beginner user as well as the tech savvy folks. There are games for kids and adults alike. Links to items of interest and further research are available on the site.

 

     We will continue to develop the site over time. This site is for you, the employees and citizens of the State of Vermont. We welcome your input. What would you like to know about? We would love to know what you do, both at home and at work, to keep your computers and networks safe. Computer security is one field in which every individual, doing small things, makes a big difference.

Please feel free to contact us with your ideas and feedback for the site. dii.securityfaq@state.vt.us.
