Subject: File 1--CORRECTION in CuD SUB/UNSUB Policy (address change)
In a previous message we printed the wrong address for subs
and unsubs to CuD. Here is the corrected version:
++++++++++++++
CHANGES IN CuD SUBSCRIPTION POLICY:
Sadly, the size of the CuD mailing list has become to large to
manage manually. Therefore, after November 5, we WILL NO LONGER
ACCEPT MANUAL SUBS.
So, please DO NOT SEND sub requests to the moderators. Instead:
To SUBSCRIBE to CuD, send this message:
sub cudigest firstname lastname
(where "firstname" and "lastname" is YOUR first and last name)
Send this message to: listserv@vmd.cso.uiuc.edu
We strongly encourage readers to obtain CuD from USENET as
comp.society.cu-digest. Or, obtain it from any of the CuD web or ftp
sites (the CuD homepage is:
http://www.soci.niu.edu/~cudigest
To UNSUB from CuD, send this message: unsub cudigest
to: listserv@vmd.cso.uiuc.edu
The UIUC listserv will change addresses in January, '96, so
we will notify readers when the change occurs.
We apologize for any inconvenience this causes, but we're simply
unable to keep up with the demands.

Security, Electronic Commerce, and the Internet:
Impact on Industry
CWRU & ISSA North Coast Chapter
International Computer Security Day Symposium
Thursday, November 30, 1995
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Companies can no longer overlook the role that electronic
commerce will play in their business. Those with systems on the
Internet must think about how to protect what they put up.
On Thursday, November 30, 1995, Case Western Reserve University
and the North Coast Chapter of the Information Systems Security
Association will be observing International Computer Security Day
with a unique symposium designed to help you understand the
electronic marketplace.
Whether your goals include enhancing customer service, increasing
marketing effectiveness, or promoting products and services, you
will want to join us as we explore the Internet as an emerging
force on industry.
"If you think that technology will suddenly make the world more
secure, you're wrong." (Tim Berners-Lee, Director, W3 Consortium)

Security, Electronic Commerce, and the Internet:
Impact on Industry
CWRU & ISSA North Coast Chapter
International Computer Security Day Symposium
Thursday, November 30, 1995
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This symposium will bring together industry leaders and technology
revolutionaries who will share their vision of the maturation of
the Internet as a tool for commerce; and it will teach you how to
participate in this revolution in a rational, professional, and
secure way. Our speakers include:
Dr. Vijay Ahuja, Product Manager, Network Security Products
IBM (Research Triangle Park, NC)
Dr. Frederick B. Cohen, Ph.D., President
Management Analytics (Hudson, OH)
Mr. John Gage, Director, Science Office
Sun Microsystems Computer Corp. (Mountain View, CA)
Dr. Erik Grimmelmann, Marketing Vice President, Gateway Services
AT&T
Mr. Leo A. McCloskey, networkMCI Consulting Group
MCI Telecommunications Corporation (Pittsburgh, PA)
Mr. Daniel E. White, Partner, IS Security Effectiveness Series
Ernst & Young LLP (Chicago, IL)
Objective: Today's Internet is a business tool that lets
information cross geographical and functional
boundaries. Everyone is talking about it, you've
read about it in the newspapers, and you've watched
it on television news programs. You want to
establish a business presence on the Internet, you
want to take advantage of this capability, and you
want to use the Internet for electronic commerce;
but you're concerned about your exposure. After
all, everyone from The New York Times to The Los
Angeles Times has told you that flaws in network
technologies threaten the security of commercial
transactions over the global Internet. What do you
do?
Who: This symposium is designed for corporate
strategists, policy makers, marketing executives,
and information technology professionals (including
technology planners, communications and network
managers, information security managers, and
technology auditors). Others interested in the
worldwide adoption of the Internet for commercial
use are also invited to attend.
When: Thursday, November 30, 1995, 8:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Where: Thwing Center, Case Western Reserve University,
11111 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio.
Lunch: Grand Foyer, Severance Hall, 11001 Euclid Avenue,
Cleveland, Ohio.
Lunch Panel: Network Security: Do You Know Who's Breaking in
Right Now?
Polls, newspaper articles, and professionals have
all suggested that the primary concern of Internet
users world wide is the potential for unauthorized
access to their potential or proprietary
information. This issue threatens to slow or limit
the worldwide adoption of the Internet for
commercial use. The lack of security touches all
of those who are concerned about copyright,
individual privacy, and personal freedom. What
progress has been made? Is this a solvable
problem? Do Internet users have to sacrifice their
open, freewheeling culture in order to provide
necessary security for the Net? Does this
commercialization work in the current architecture
of the Internet? Do we have a choice? These are
the questions our moderator will pose to our
distinguished group of industry and technology
leaders, each of whom has a large stake in the
outcome of this debate. This should be a fiery
discussion!

Hello!
Frontier Technologies will be releasing this information on Business
Wire first thing Monday morning, Oct.30. However, both Ann and I
wanted you to have heads-up on this information. We will be
demonstrating this new technology at Internetworld in Boston, Oct. 30 -
Nov. 1 (booth # 564). If you are interested, and you would like an
interview, feel free to contact either one of us to arrange a time.

Frontier Technologies Leads The Pack In Supporting New Internet Graphic
& Sound Compression Technology
Johnson-Grace's High speed publishing technology to be integrated into
Frontier's Internet Browser
MEQUON, WI -- October 30, 1995 -- Frontier Technologies Corporation, an
industry leader in Internet technology, and Johnson-Grace Company
announced that Frontier Technologies' award-winning Internet browser
now supports Johnson-Grace's ART 2.0 (TM) file compression technology.
ART technology compresses graphic images and sound into one file,
allowing users to rapidly download files over even slow Internet
connections, and simultaneously display graphics and play back sound as
the file downloads. Users of Frontier's ART-enabled Internet browser
will be able to download sound and graphic files three times faster
than with ordinary browsers and will be able to simultaneously hear
broadcast-quality sound. For example, a 24KB .BMP file and a 335KB
.WAV file can compress into a 14KB .ART file.
A beta version of Frontier's new ART-enabled Internet browser is
available for immediate download from http://www.frontiertech.com.
Frontier has also set up an "ART Gallery" on its web site, including
several ART files. The ART Gallery provides links to several other
Internet sites containing ART files, including the electronic Gourmet
Guide, iGOLF, and LAN Magazine. Web page designers wishing to embed
ART files in their own HTML documents can download Johnson-Grace's ART
Press (TM) authoring tool from both the Frontier and Johnson-Grace web
sites.
Internet users wishing to experience the new ART Technology may access
several World Wide Web sites after downloading Frontier's new Internet
browser. The electronic Gourmet Guide, Inc. ("the eGG")
(http://www.2way.com/food/egg) iGOLF (http://wwwigolf.com), and LAN
Magazine (http://www.lanmag.com)are among the first World Wide Web
sites to provide ART images and sound.
Frontier and Johnson-Grace will be presenting the new ART technology in
special demonstration at Internet World on October 30 - November 1.
The demonstrations will take place at Frontier's booth (# 564).
If you would like more information, please feel free to call or email
Ann or Nicole.
