LAST WEEK: SunGard Collegis, Deb Lutz, programmer.
A national firm, SunGard Collegis, that is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is helping Delta College and many other institutions manage computers and systems.
The help of a majorcorporate partner is vital in today's complicated world of higher technology, according to Deb Lutz, financial officer of Delta.
The partnership has helped the college "gear up technology," she said, for more efficient delivery of educational services.
She introduced speakers Robert Wheeler, chief information officer, and Nathan Ader, network manager, both of SunGard Collegis.
Mr. Wheeler stressed the importance of safety and security with computer systems, and Mr. Ader presented a Power Point program entitled "Safe Computing at Work, Home and On The Road."
Why protect computers? Because intruders are continually trying to get information from you, said Mr. Ader. "Identification theft is a real issue now."
Besides intruders who want to use your computer, viruses are expanding and "holes" in software allow intruders to use your computer as a spam sending machine.
Ninety four percent of all e-mail received by the college is spam, said Mr. Ader. "You really have to block these unwanted messages."
Make sure your anti-virus software has automatic updates, he said, since each month an average of 40 new viruses hits the Internet.
Information about computer safety is available on the Delta College website, www.delta.edu
