This is Skype's resource page for security. I would point them towards
the network admin link farther down. They address network concerns much
better with 3.0
http://www.skype.com/security/
If they're worried about the effects of supernodes, bandwidth, etc I'd
would use this white paper from Columbia. Gives a good explanation of
when supernodes are created, under what circumstances, and what
resources they use when it happens.

Re Skype and Teleconferencing
Has anyone had any reluctance from their tech departments from a
security point of view? We have had teachers told they are "compromising
network security"by attempting to teleconference. Does anyone have any
definitive arguments which have worked?
Thanks!
