                 Desktop Integration Local User's Group (DILUG)
                              Thursday, January 4
                              11:00AM until 2:00PM
                         Digital Equipment Corporation
                                 6406 Ivy Lane
                                 Greenbelt, MD

                                     TOPICS
                        PC Security and TCP/IP Protocols
                  Single Sign-on - What to be Concerned About

          John McMahon of Trusted Information Systems will discuss
          TCP/IP and network security issues in a mixed PC and "big
          machine" environment.  The first part of the session will
          discuss common TCP/IP protocols that PCs use and their
          security implications.  This will be followed with a
          discussion of the general security risks any PC brings to a
          networked environment and some solutions/tradeoffs for the
          network manager.

          Single sign-on is a term covering a broad range of
          techniques for relieving computer users of the need to keep
          entering various passwords during the day as they access
          multiple services from a single desktop computer.  In large
          network situations, the appeal of such a capability to end
          users is irresistable, while those responsible for computer
          security often are concerned, if for no other reason because
          of the massive environmental change introduced by single
          sign-on methods.
          Larry Kilgallen of LJK Software will discuss what is
          required to implement single sign-on, pointing out the
          potentially dangerous areas.

          John and Larry will do joint Q&A sessions after both
          presentations.


          As you can see from the list of future meetings below, we
          are looking for topics for our upcoming meetings.  Please
          let anyone on the Steering Committee know what you would
          like to hear about (our phone numbers and email addresses
          are listed at the end of this announcement) or let us know
          at the meeting.

                                Future meetings:
          March 7        Topic TBD
          May 2          Topic TBD

          Since lunch (probably pizza and soda) will be provided,
          please register with Mimi Smyles at (301)918-5809 and
          specify how many people from your organization will be
          attending.


          Directions:
          Take the Beltway to Exit 23 (Kenilworth Ave.).  At Exit 23,
          take the Greenbelt exit (bear left from the inner loop or
          right from the outer loop).  Make the second left onto Ivy
          Lane, then make the first right into Capital Office Park.
          Digital is in the blue building on the right.
