I use Truecrypt on my laptop, and keep all of my data there. The idea being that if my laptop did get stolen/compromised, it would be very very difficult for my data to be found. I just didn't feel comfortable with only my laptop password as security! I hope this becomes standard practice in the future. monica Monica Barratt PhD Student National Drug Research Institute http://db.ndri.curtin.edu.au/staff.asp?persid=650 http://www.linkedin.com/in/mbarratt On 15/09/2007, Jeremy Hunsinger <jhuns@vt.edu> wrote:
I used standard 1024 bit key encryption for storage of electronic documents. I stored the key separately in a different locked cabinet. This was 4 years ago and that still seems to be a fairly standard option for storing electronic records. I deleted the electronic versions of the records after 3 years. The paper transcriptions still exist. That was what I had agreed to with the interviewees. _______________________________________________ The Air-L@listserv.aoir.org mailing list is provided by the Association of Internet Researchers http://aoir.org Subscribe, change options or unsubscribe at: http://listserv.aoir.org/listinfo.cgi/air-l-aoir.org
