What is secure computing?

Secure computing standards identify the minimum requirements for all University-owned computers and servers.

Ultimately, the standards will help to address unique security challenges our campus faces including better support for hybrid teaching, learning and work, increased security of computing assets, decreased risk to intellectual property, and more.
