  • Stanford University Budget Plan 2017/18
    STANFORD UNIVERSITY STANFORD UNIVERSITY BUDGET PLAN STANFORD 2017/18 BUDGET PLAN 2017/18 Approved: This Budget Plan was approved by the Stanford University Board of Trustees June 14–15, 2017. This publication can be found at: http://www.stanford.edu/dept/pres-provost/budget/plans/plan18.html STANFORD UNIVERSITY BUDGET PLAN 2017/18 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY iii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY To The Board of Trustees: It is a pleasure to submit my first Budget Plan as Stanford’s provost. This budget maintains our university’s pre-eminent academic and research programs. It calls for selective investments in high priority areas. It also strengthens our financial base, thereby providing the foundation for the strategic initiatives expected to emerge from the Long Range Planning process. Our approach in developing the 2017/18 Budget Plan has been a cautious one. Slow growth in endowment payout and uncertainty around government sponsored research have created a planning context in which we have reduced the growth of new program investment compared to recent years. At the same time, we have increased our financial reserve position should external funding conditions deteriorate. We are confident this budget both furthers Stanford’s programmatic objectives and maintains a strong underlying financial condition. This document presents Stanford’s 2017/18 Budget Plan for Trustee approval. The Budget Plan has two parts. The first is the Consolidated Budget for Operations, which includes all of Stanford’s anticipated operating revenue and expense for next year. The second is the Capital Budget, which is set in the context of a multi-year Capital Plan. The budgets for Stanford Health Care and Stanford Children’s Health, both separate corporations, are not included in this Budget Plan, although they are incorporated into the university’s annual audited financial report.

  • Data Breach Reports
    CONTENTS Information & Background on ITRC ........... 2 Methodology .............................................. 3 ITRC Breach Stats Report Summary .......... 4 ITRC Breach Stats Report ..........................5 ITRC Breach Report ................................ 42 Information and Background on ITRC Information management is critically important to all of us - as employees and consumers. For that reason, the Identity Theft Resource Center has been tracking security breaches since 2005, looking for patterns, new trends and any information that may better help us to educate consumers and businesses on the need for understanding the value of protecting personal identifying information. What is a breach? The ITRC defines a data breach as an incident in which an individual name plus a Social Security number, driver’s license number, medical record or financial record (credit/ debit cards included) is potentially put at risk because of exposure. This exposure can occur either electronically or in paper format. The ITRC will also capture breaches that do not, by the nature of the incident, trigger data breach notification laws. Generally, these breaches consist of the exposure of user names, emails and passwords without involving sensitive personal identifying information. These breach incidents will be included by name but without the total number of records exposed. There are currently two ITRC breach reports which are updated and posted on-line on a weekly basis. The ITRC Breach Report presents detailed information about data exposure events along with running totals for a specific year. Breaches are broken down into five categories, as follows: business, banking/credit/financial, educational, Government/Military and medical/healthcare. The ITRC Breach Stats Report provides a summary of this information by category.

As previous profile reports have done, it benchmarks the Bay Area’s economic performance against other knowledge-based economies in the United States and around the world, to assess the region’s national and global competitiveness. It also analyzes the economic and policy challenges that continue to confront the region and that must be addressed if the Bay Area wishes to maintain its current position of economic leadership. This year’s Bay Area Economic Profile report finds, as it has so often in the past, that the region has experienced a substantial economic recovery and remarkable economic growth based on its ability to innovate across a range of leading sectors. This strength in innovation continues to position it fa- vorably as both a partner and a competitor with leading economic regions throughout the world.
