Protect Yourself
Personal Information: The Internet makes it easy to shop, bank, and communicate online, but it also puts you at risk for identity theft. By using some basic precautions, you can reduce the odds of being a victim.
Updates and Maintenance: The first line of defense in keeping your computer as secure as possible is through regular software updates and routine system maintenance to help avoid data loss, new viruses, and other potential risks. Students accessing the internet in our dorms are required by our Clean Access system to perform updates prior to gaining network access.
