Ensuring that Air Force maintains its edge in information superiority hinges upon keeping people current through ongoing computer training and ensuring threats to computer securit y are understood, a senior Air Force information protection official said. And the rapid expansion of computer technology has intensified the importance of meeting those challenges, said Patrick A. Hedges, chief of AF systems security protection. But leaders are challenged with the battle principle of security for computer resources and information objectives of availability, integrity and confidentiality.
Communication technology is the new world's center of gravity.

Much of what individuals can do to enhance security can be termed common sense, Hedges said. You're responsible for the data on your computer. Hedges pointed out that there are areas for communal services and restricted areas.
