This concerns the key in the hand held encryption box used to get past the guard in Lucent Technologies/Bell Labs' internet firewall, guard.research.bell-labs.com. Please note these revised guidelines for who may have an encryption box: 1) Anyone in Area 11 is entitled to a SecureNet key/account if requested. Others must have a sponsor in Area 11 who is a Department Head or higher. 2) On renewal, any regular/permanent employee will be added to the database with no expiration date. We'll use the POST database to periodically purge these employees. If you are not a member of Area 11, specify the sponsoring DH when you are renewed. 3) Any term employee (contract, term, consultant, intern, visitor, etc) must have an expiration supplied by their Department Head. 4) Non-employee's may retain a dongle and account only with written approval from an area 11 sponsoring DH. This approval must include an expiration date and information on currnt contact information for the user. Contact.
