The National Conference on Computing and Values (NCCV) was held on the campus of Southern Connecticut State University in August 1991. The Conference included six “tracks”: Teaching Computing and Human Values, Computer Privacy and Confidentiality, Computer Security and Crime, Ownership of Software and Intellectual Property, Equity and Access to Computing Resources, and Policy Issues in the Campus Computing Environment. Each track included a major address, three to five commentaries, some small “working groups,” and a packet of relevant readings (the “Track Pack”). A variety of supplemental “enrichment events” were also included.
This monograph contains the proceeding of the “Computer Security and Crime” track of NCCV. It includes the “track address” with four commentaries, two enrichment papers and the conference bibliography.
The track address is “Computer Security and Human Values” by Peter G. Neumann; and the commentaries include: “On Computer Security and Public Trust” by William Hugh Murray, “The End of the (Ab)User Friendly Era” by Sanford Sherizen, “Responsibility and Blame in Computer Security” by Dorothy E. Denning, and “Computer Crime, Computer Security and Human Values” by Kenneth C. Citarella.
The enrichment papers are: “Hacker Ethics” by Dorothy E. Denning, and “The Social Impact of Computer-Mediated Voting” by Arnold Urken.
The National Conference on Computing and Values was a major undertaking that required significant help from many people. The Editors would like to express sincere thanks to the National Science Foundation and the Metaphilosophy Foundation for support that made the project possible. And we wish to thank the following people for their invaluable help and support: (in alphabetic order) Denice Botto, William Bowersox, Aline W.
