plan to hire Dr. RutR Davis as an outside contractor to manage a broad-based
analysis of computer securit in the Government. This effort is to take from

at members' places. asked members to review the new drafts 25X1

meeting. said members should keep in mind that this effort 25X1
was not a SECOM initiative but was driven by IG/CM tasking, which required us
to submit a draft NSDD to address all compromises, not just intelligence ones.
He noted that nearly .the same agencies are represented on both the SECOM and
the IG/CM, and suggested that concerns about the scope of the proposed effort
might be addressed effectively at the IG/CM. Discussion didn't identify any
serious problems, asked members to let him know by 1 April 25X1
if they had any serious concerns a out the draft response, and to provide him
no later than 6 April any written dissent or specific comments they wanted
forwarded. He stated that the a classified Confidential unless 25X1
