Help, I’m being audited! Compliance assurance begins at home! –Review the OCIO Software Life-Cycle Management Guidelines at: http://ocio.osu.edu/assets/Software/life-cycle- mgmt-guide.pdf http://ocio.osu.edu/assets/Software/life-cycle- mgmt-guide.pdf –Manage software actively, not passively. Do spot checks on your own products to verify records –Use license servers where possible, and don’t extend rights that aren’t specifically in a contract –Remove/Retire old/legacy software immediately on ending a contract or altering a contract
12
Help, I’m being audited! If you’re audited for software compliance, contact OCIO. We’re on your side in an audit. Have the following items: –Any contracts, EULA’s, quotes, or other terms you may have, and a description of what kind of license you think you have (concurrent, FTE, device, etc.) –The original notification letter concerning the audit –Any information on exactly what is installed and where it is Include version numbers! Never, ever alter your installations after audit notification without first discussing directly with OSU Legal
13
Help, I’m being audited! General things to remember: –We are a public institution. Our e-mails are subject to records request. Be honest in your e- mail, but aware that correspondence can be requested. –OSU Legal, OCIO, and other internal offices are on your side. We want to know all the facts to help you out. –OCIO Security is now in charge of audits within OCIO, so don’t be alarmed when we bring them into the meetings.
14
Common Types of License Concurrent: –This license means that you need to track how many people are using it at any given point. Named User: –You are required to license all users, regardless of how many devices they may use. Device: –You are required to license all devices, regardless of how many users there may be. User + Device (aka “Named User Plus”): –You are required to license both users and their devices Full Time Equivalent: –Uses a formula to determine how many licenses are required, based on number of “whole” individuals who may access the software. OCIO prefers Microsoft FTE numbers.
