If unprotected, your computer is a gateway to thieves and hackers, who can access and modify research data, students' grades, and other confidential items, or infect the network overall and limit everyone's access. Unauthorized access to information could also expose you or the College to financial and compliance risks. Protecting your information is easy. Learn how by attending this seminar at DCAL.
