Welcome to Fall 2024!
All of us in the Office of Information Security are happy to see Oregon State University come “back alive” with students! Welcome back, Beavs!
The Information Security Team has been busy over the summer making improvements to our program. We’ve made some changes to technology that you interact with, and many of you will notice them. We’ve improved some cyber protection processes to serve you better. We’re working on ways to support increases in federal compliance requirements for administrative and research systems. We have been busy and we are glad you are back!
October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, so keep an eye out for events to learn more about how to protect yourself from cyber threats. Our largest event for the month will be a Cyber Carnival on the MU Quad on October 3rd between 10:30 AM and 1:30 PM. Come join us for some fun and information. We will also be visiting OSU-Cascades during October, so stay tuned!
Have a great Fall term!
Respectfully,
David
