Information Security

Many students bring a number of electronic devices to campus, and may also choose to use computers located in labs and classrooms that are managed by the Office of Information Technology. The University of Tampa provides a number of Web-enabled services and applications to students, such as email accounts, online registration for classes and payment gateways. When students are using Internet-connected devices, or are on campus networks, it is important to safeguard personal information and devices/systems from vulnerabilities and threats. 

Cybercriminals launch automated attacks over the Internet. If a student's system gets infected from one of these attacks, personal information can be exposed, and the system may need to be reinstalled. The best way to prevent this is to become "security aware."
