Do not disable the anti-virus software on your PC and do report any incidence of viruses to the Information Systems Department. We must all be very careful to protect sensitive, private, or confidential information stored electronically. Instead, use the network drives that require logging in with a Login ID and password. If you choose to store such information on the local hard drive, you must assume total responsibility for your data, taking care to lock physical access to the PC when unattended, not sharing your PC with other users, and backing up the data yourself. Electronic communication used wisely broadens our world and improves our communication.
Security experts consider e-mail messages no more secure than a postcard.
A network Login ID is an assigned code used to access the computer network. It is typed into the computer along with the network password to gain access to the network. It usually is comprised of part of the person s name and comprises in turn a part of the person s e-mail address.
