Principles
Make a simple system (less complexity)
Rationale :
- Reduce the number of potential bugs and problems
- The remaining bugs will be easier to identify/isolate & fix
- Easier maintenance
- Less people to recruit
Limit security & filtering mechanisms
Especially during the launch, rationale :
- Alem is a school, not a bank, so the security requirements are lower
- Some students will be able to bypass security systems in all cases
- Reduce complexity (see above)
- The only reliable way to identify students will be security cameras and staff attention
- Students will share accounts and USB drives
- They will open connections to the outside and there is no definitive way to prevent this
- We will "hire" the students who have found vulnerabilities using technical skills and creativity
- We cannot anticipate every breach hundreds of students will find & exploit
- Focus on endpoint security rather than network security (firewall on each node)
- Reduce complexity of the network and make it more flexible
Promote open, neutral network & technologies
Rationale :
- Students will spend more time learning things and exchanging ideas than bypassing censorship
- Students will have more extensive knowledge and skills
- It is better to make them aware of their situation than to try to stop them
- A student's motivation is very much influenced by his or her environment
- An environment with limitations will limit the spectrum of things that stimulate the student's curiosity
