InformationSecurity – It's Everybody's Responsibility
Securing information is the responsibility of every department and individual on campus. No one can assume that anti-virus software, firewalls, and data encryption can provide the protection needed to secure all data that resides on personal workstations, in file cabinets, or on desks, printers, and copiers. Information security and protecting confidential information and campus resources is everyone's responsibility. This site is dedicated to helping the campus community be more security conscious, cautious, and conscientious. In addition to the Security News Ticker below, this site contains information security tips and bulletins, as well as links to sites with information on viruses, spam, hoaxes, phishing, pharming, and other resources.

Four Students Win Laptops
Cheryl Costello, Anisha Dickey, Ruben Garcia, and Sonu Upadhyay are the lucky winners of HP Compaq 6720s Notebook PCs. The University held three drawings during fall and winter quarters to publicize the both information security and the importance of NIS accounts. Students were encouraged to pick up and start using their NIS accounts and e-mail. An NIS account is now required to access all campus computing resources, including Library and OAL computers. And, NIS e-mail accounts are now used as one of the official means of communicating with students. Read their stories and reactions to winning on the Information Security Events Web site.
