Information Security Essentials
MANDATORY ALL-EMPLOYEE AWARENESS
We've all heard of the many, growing threats to computer security. Maybe you have direct experiences of your own. BUT, do you know what your responsibilities are and the positive impact you can make toward a secure computing environment at the University of Arizona?
A recent IT performance audit charged all three Arizona universities with implementing a security program that includes mandatory university-wide security awareness education and training for all users. To fulfill this requirement, the UA Information Security Office, with help from the campus community,has developed user-friendly online modules to ensure that all employees can easily participate in and complete the security awareness program. The program has been designed to not only inform employees of their responsibilities as members of the UA community, but to also assist them in securing their information at home.
