Upcoming DOE Security audits have caused the need for all RHIC users to have Life or Guest Numbers. For more details, see the section below entitled "DOE Audits." o What Do You Need to Do? 1. If you have an active BNL life or guest number, you mostlikely need not do anything. We will be notifying RHIC collaboration with lists of all accounts we cannot associate with active BNL life or guest numbers. We will also be sending emails to these users at their rcf.rhic.bnl.gov email accounts. 2. If you are a RHIC collaborator and have an account at RCF but DO NOT currently have an active BNL guest number, you need to register for a guest appointment using Brookhaven's web-based registration system by first accessing this web page: http://www.rhic.bnl.gov/RCF/UserInfo/GettingStarted/NewUser/rcf_account_instructions.html Do this immediately! 3. If your RCF account is not matched to an active BNL life or guest number by July 12, 2004, your access to RCF resources will be suspended. Access to the RCF can be easily reactivated when you get an active BNL life or guest number. IMPORTANT NOTE: If you request Remote Computer Access Only on the registration form you will NOT been given approval for physical access onto Brookhaven property. If you plan to visit Brookhaven, you should choose Physical On-site Access to BNL. o Questions? The RCF staff will have happy to help you with any questions that you may have. Send your questions to "useraccts@rcf.rhic.bnl.gov". o DOE Audits Brookhaven has two major cyber security audits coming up, a DOE Office of Counterintelligence audit in August and a DOE Office of Independent Oversight and Performance Assurance audit in November. We anticipate that the RHIC Computing Facility (RCF) will be reviewed during both of these audits. BNL's responsibilities with respect to cyber security are stated in DOE Orders 205.1 (Cyber Security Program) and DOE Notice 205.2 (Foreign National Access to DOE Cyber Systems). BNL management recently provided guidance which states that all individuals having access to a Brookhaven computer must hold an active guest status with the laboratory (basically an RCF account must be matched with an active guest number). This is not the case for some RCF users and this must be corrected. Morris Strongson, mms@bnl.gov -- This message forwarded from the RCF announcements page.
