Cesar Pescador Monroy, Rayford B. Vaughn · 2006
Abstract- Many information security officers or network system administrators at universities and colleges face the problem of not knowing when students are utilizing the campus network in ways that can affect the image of the university or even cause monetary losses. Improper use of the network could either be willful and maliciously done or perhaps just naïve students unaware of viruses on their computers or the dangers posed by P2P networking software. The quick identification of these students is of great benefit for both the university and the students. The author will focus this paper on a Quarantine method implemented by at Mississippi State University to reduce or eliminate the stated problem.
