GoGaucho
  • Potential Plan
    • Seth Northrop will reach out to Jennifer Lofthus - Seth is waiting until we do our review
    • Hengyu Liu request for API access - also a developer of the same app
    • For the Campus Web API Group 
      • We will need to do a code review of the application
      • We will need to come up with language that says you will use the student credentials securely that they will need to sign
        • The language will also need to state terms of notifications for potential problems (will this make it an official endorsement which will then create legal liabilities (question))
        • Most likely we should use the Standard DS (Data Security) agreement
      • We will need to do periodic reviews of the application to ensure the application keeps the security standards in place
    • Our View Point on this Scenario
      • Student developed apps should be given just as much opportunity as staff developed apps
      • Their needs to be a security review of any app that is using an API which requires approval before it's approved through the Campus Web API Gateway
      • Reviews of the application will be with team that developed the application and the API Gateway Team
        • A previous review with a development team can be used to approved any future applications that they create
      • Student developed apps will need to sign extra agreements (like Security DS)
        • Staff developed apps will not need this because the agreement is already part of working on the campus
  • App review update
  • Request for events APIs
  • Diana Antova Will request a discussion with Associated students, Sam Horowitz, Registrar and Jennifer Lofthus. 
  • Planning on how to support the students, and provide continuity, either thru hire, or some other method.
