==ASS Priorities==
 
Here is a list of what ASSes should prioritize when making decisions.
 
 
*'''Communicate''' effectively with your users.  Communicate with other ASSes about what you're doing.
 
*Maintain effective '''security'''; stop people from doing things that they shouldn't be doing.
 
*Maintain '''data''' integrity for our users and our systems.
 
*Do not violate or let be violated the '''privacy''' of your users.
 
*Keep all your services in '''working''' order (e.g. research a new version before upgrading to it)
 
*Minimize and mitigate any '''downtime''' that happens or is necessary to have.
 
*Be '''efficient''', paying attention to requests of more importance before minor issues.
 
*Uphold our local organizational '''policies''' as well as the accepted laws related to your work.
 
*Do not '''abuse''' Free Geek's resources, and help to prevent others from doing the same (excessive network traffic, excessive printing).
 
*Try not to be '''annoying'''; people will complain much sooner and louder if something bothers them than if something is just broken.
 
*Do what it takes to '''understand''' the implications of your actions before taking them, so that you can knowingly apply these priorities.

ASS is an acronym representing "Administrators of Systems and Security".



The ASSes arewere the oldest working group at Free Geek. They are the people who design and manage the network at Free Geek, and are responsible for developing our IT security policy.

You'd think this would mean we'd have a better wiki section =:)
