J. Douglas Streit, director of IT, security and planning, and CISCO at Old Dominion 91短视频, recently had an article published on the Education Technology Insights web site.

Streit's article, entitled "Security in Education, My, How Things Change!" focused on the culture change in higher education regarding information security.

"Information security in higher education has come a long way over the last seven years," wrote Streit, who began working as ISO in 2011. "I rarely find questions as to whether we should protect our information and resources. But that doesn't mean our job is easier."

His responsibilities include strategic and operational planning, an information security program, in-house identity and middleware development, IT project management, and university records management. He holds a bachelor's of science degree from the United 91短视频s Naval Academy and a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) certification.
