131427 - POIMS balances the tension between personal and organizational needs.
131428 - ref OF 1 1054 People are individuals, but community augments personal
131429 - existence, and it requires communication to build and maintain shared
131430 - meaning so that people can cooperate. The benefits of collaboration
131431 - collide with risks of disclosure causing stress in resolving competing
131432 - demands to withhold or notify.
131433 -
131434 - [On 000312 received notice of professional event on security and
131435 - confidentiality capabilities to support Enterprise Management
131436 - under Windows 2000. ref SDS 17 0001

131446 - The "secrets" people need to know the most are alternate "meanings" of
131447 - daily communications. SDS helps assess accuracy, correlations and
131448 - implications, so that adjustments can be made, as Tom requests today
131449 - in withdrawing information from the public record. Most of the time
131450 - confidences are disclosed unwittingly. Something is said or written
131451 - that seems benign, yet turns out to have significant implications,
131452 - which are overlooked at the time due to limited span of attention.
131453 - This makes...

131461 -
131462 - The SDS environment expands span of attention so it easy to develop
131463 - the range of meanings that arise in different contexts. This feedback
131464 - gives people early notice of danger and opportunity to take proactive
131465 - action. Like double entry bookkeeping, it is a cross-check "metric"
131466 - for adjusting the record, in time to align action, that flows from
131467 - communication, with requirements and objectives. (see POIMS,
131468 - ref OF 1 1108)
131469 -
131470 - Removing information is easy to do, but often it is not an effective
131471 - solution. Gates and his colleagues demonstrated at the Microsoft
131472 - anti-trust trial that information put forward in email is always
131473 - subject to public scrutiny. see the record on 991110. ref SDS 10 6722
131474 - On 880925 this practice was reviewed in a letter to the manager,
131475 - ref DIP 3 3622, on Broadwater Dam project. ref SDS 1 8493
131476 -
131477 - A new strategy for confidentiality is needed in the age of ubiquitous
131478 - copying, fax, email, that multiply information in the blink of an eye,
131479 - as reviewed on 991021. ref SDS 9 2695
131480 -
131481 - SDS strategies for confidentiality, privacy and security were reviewed
