The Information Security team has received reports of highly personalised phishing emails targeting academics across the University. Find out what the warning signs are and what you should do if you receive this kind of email.

The new Acceptable Use Policy sets out activities that are deemed to be acceptable and unacceptable use of the University’s information systems, networks, information assets, and devices (including computers, tablets and phones).

In today's digital age, email security is more important than ever. Here’s a reminder of how to tell the difference between phishing and spam emails and how to report them correctly.

Students will soon be able to ‘tap in’ to register their attendance at teaching sessions in the Oculus. Learn more about the new digital process, which will improve data and reduce effort, and will be extended across campus during the rest of this year.

You don’t need to be a technical expert to help keep our ÌÇÐÄTV community safe online. Join the University-wide Information Security Champions Network to help promote good security practices and a safer environment for staff and students.

Two new policies have been published – one which sets out the responsibilities of those who manage computer systems, and another outlining the requirements to access University information, systems, and infrastructure, to make sure only authorised people can do so.

If you use a personal device to access the University network, you may have received an email from Microsoft requesting that you upgrade to Windows 11.  to make sure your device can connect securely.

If you use an unmanaged device you will receive an email, from microsoft-noreply@microsoft.com, about Windows 10 ‘end of life’. Follow the instructions to upgrade to Windows 11 and meet security requirements.

Emergency services were called to a fire on campus at the Arthur Vick residence block 1 on Wednesday night (19 November). The fire is now out. All students were evacuated and no injuries were reported.
