257 Session SummaryThis session addresses today's design efforts, seeking to identify security issues for fifth generation computing. Emphasis is placed on disaster recovery, auditing and evaluation of computer systems, and special problems arising from the proliferation of small computers.K. Fong, whose abstract follows in these Proceedings, describes our changing approach to providing uninterruptable access to automated information resources. These changes can include total redundancy and geographic dispersion, ensuring compatibility and transportability of information and software, as well as automated facilities to recover essential functions after disasters.S. Thompson's paper, also following in these Proceedings, deals with the differences in security posture that result from the proliferation of computer networks and microcomputers within the business community.R. Shattuck will examine telecommunications and office networks. The needs of nontechnical microcomputer users in an office environment merit special attention when considering auditing and security. He will define the role of template development for software packages, addressing the concerns and problems inherent in these templates. His presentation concentrates on the implementation and integration of microcomputer systems, emphasizing audit and control features. Many deficiencies exist with third and fourth generation computer systems, of which Shattuck singles out protocol handshaking and cross-system communication as being of special concern for integrity.--James J.
