Network Security and Privacy Policies
Unauthorized
attempts to gain privileged access or access to any account or system
not belonging to you on any University system are not permitted. Computer
and network accounts provide access to personal, confidential data. Therefore,
individual accounts cannot be transferred to or used by another individual.
Sharing accounts or passwords is not permitted.
Each user is responsible for the proper use of his or her account and any activity conducted with it. This includes choosing safe passwords, protecting them, and ensuring that file protections are set correctly. Each system owner is responsible for the security of any system he/she connects to the network. A system seen to be attacking other systems, e.g. having fallen victim to viruses/worms, will be taken off the network, generally without notice, until it has been made secure.
No University system or network may be used as a vehicle to gain unauthorized access to other systems. Any user who finds a possible security lapse on any University system must report it to the system administrators.
To protect your files and the system, don't attempt to use a system under these conditions until the system administrator has investigated the problem.
