New Alumni E-mail Account Policy

Alumni

 

E-mail accounts, once compromised, can easily leak out private and confidential information and can be controlled by hackers to spread spam mails, malware, phishing attacks and even illegal activities. Protecting e-mail accounts is increasingly crucial in cybersecurity.

 

The alumni e-mail account that is offered to every University graduate upon graduation should also be properly protected. University has recently endorsed a revision in the Information Security Policy to enhance the protection of the alumni e-mail accounts. The new policy requires all alumni to renew their e-mail accounts every 2 years with just a few simple steps.

 

The first Alumni e-mail account renewal exercise was conducted between 7 April 2021 to 19 May 2021. Those accounts without response from the account holders to the renewal requests were protected by disabling the account until ITSC receives the reactivation request. 

Please stay alert of your e-mails and the security of the e-mail accounts by visiting the ITSC web site.
