An Introduction to the Site

This project is an initiative of the Stockholm Environment Institute, Oxford Office. The site makes research materials available to the academic community, but some documents and discussions are publicly open.

The VulnerabilityNet coordinators prepare synopses of key aspects of vulnerability research and policy.

The site as of Sep 05 functions as a discussion forum and a repository of research documents, but may in the future be expanded with other facilities. It is intended for fast and efficient access on any communications infrastructure, so that for instance, users in the developing world will not be slowed or encumbered.

These pages provide basic help for users who wish to contribute to the discussions by posting, or by accessing the material which others have posted. You are welcome to participate on any forum which is described as 'Public', while 'Restricted' forums will require authorisation from the moderator or 'owner' of that space.

The VulnerabilityNet administrators can access a help system from within the Administrative pages, which of course will require the entry of a recognised administrative username and password.

Please close this window, and select the 'Admin' link from the main window in order to access these functions.
