SIGNED BY LANCE HOFFMAN TO WILLIS WARE: "To Willis/ Who gave me my best review/ in 1970 for a paper and who,/ as he and I canter along the/ computer security highway, becomes/ even more incisive and (as always)/ one of the most fun people in/ the field./ All the best,/ La…nce/ 10/2/90." In 2010, Ware, then 90 years old, described the part he played in the 1960s and 1970s in the early discussions of computers, information security and personal privacy: "ARPA asked RAND to have me chair a study to address (what we now call) computer security. The study was briefed to the Defense Science Board and laid the foundation for subsequent USAF and ARPA studies and research papers. Consequently I was asked by the Secretary of HEW to chair a committee to address 'personal privacy'--personal information stored in a computer-based system. The work of that Secretary's Special Advisory Committee on Automated Personal Data Systems and its policy recommendations funneled into the Privacy Act of 1974, which created the seven-member Privacy Protection Study Commission to which I was appointed by President Ford (and served as vice chairman). . . . We functioned for two years and three months and produced a final report and five individually bound appendices. Thus, I can legitimately claim to have been the driving force for two of the most important policy issues relevant to (what we now call) information systems: information security and personal privacy" (IEEE Annals of the History of Computing, July-September 2011, p. 72).
