Has anyone else been approached by this student? Is it genuine?
Personally, I'm not about to share our security procedures with anyone, even
if it is a genuine request. So those sections won't be very helpful to him.
Thanks
Duncan James
Dear Mr James
I am a student in the University of Central Lancashire, and I am doing
masters degree in database system. One of the modules in the course called:
Masters Paper where every student must write an academic paper in a selected
topic.
My topic was about data protection and archiving, and I have already
finished the research part. Therefore, to complete the paper I was advised
to do investigation about data protection in the Universities in the UK.
The purpose of the investigation is to gather information about data
security process in the universities. The investigation focuses on how the
personal data is stored and to what extent the data is protected.
The questionnaires in the attached document are directed to universities
officers. The questions do not examine whilst the universities applies the
rules or not. The main aim of the investigation is to show the different
procedures applied in different universities.
Ill be very grateful if you can spare some time and answer the attached
questionnaires and resend the document after filling it out.
