IT Security
IT Security supports administrative use of the Information Technology services and systems managed by University Technology Services. IT Security is working with other UTS areas to develop a framework for a consistent campus-wide security program that will:
- Document and advocate best practices for maintaining the security of McMaster's data, desktop systems, servers, and networks.
- Educate, advise, and train staff to ensure the security of these vital university assets.
- Establish campus standards for security and review relevant policies and procedures in the context of these standards.
- Participate in the evaluation and implementation of security-related technologies such as mechanisms for authentication and authorization, encryption, certificate services, antivirus software, network filtering, firewalls, and proxy servers.
- Work with other units on campus to establish campus-wide standards for security and access control.
