RAINS makes Dartmouth's ISTS's list! Congrats, RAINS Security In The News - March 29, 2004: (http://news.ists.dartmouth.edu) Title: Oregon alliance pushes info-sharing standard Source: Federal Computer Week Date Written: March 26, 2004 Date Collected: March 29, 2004 On March 29, 2004 Oregon's Regional Alliance for Infrastructure and Network Security (RAINS) will publish its Open Specification for Sensitive Information Sharing (OsSIS), designed to provide interoperability and data security for government networks. OSSIS is based on RAINS' Connect and Protect program, designed to connect geographically dispersed organizations into a centrally-managed and protected wide-area network. OSSIS promotes web services standards and proposes a RAIN-managed Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration registry to allow accredited RAINS participants to transact with each other. RAINS is promoting its framework for use in other states and localities. Homeland Security, which has a number of initiatives regarding information sharing, has discussed joining the program, but has made no final plan. http://www.fcw.com/geb/articles/2004/0322/web-rains-03-26-04.asp Also - http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1556003,00.asp Sasha
