Beware of Threats to Our Confidential Data

Historically, Internet criminals leverage current events - tax season, elections, pandemics - to launch various campaigns to steal money, confidential data, and information resources. The TTU IT Division strongly recommends that faculty, staff, and students be vigilant in protecting institutional and personal data and information resources.

Email Management: Be Prudent with University Resources

Regular email account management helps to optimize TTU data storage resources. Taking a few minutes to sort through your email inbox, folders, and archives will help you stay organized and conserve data storage resources.

Confidentiality Notice Disclaimers for Email

While TTU recognizes the convenience and efficiency of email correspondence, we must also protect institutional data in transit and at rest on desktops, laptops, and mobile devices. The best practice is to avoid including any confidential information in an email message, unless absolutely necessary, even in a message to another TTU employee or student.

Acceptable Use Policy

As you take advantage of the many information resources provided by Texas Tech University, please remember that use of these resources must adhere to TTU Operating Policies and Procedures, including the IT Acceptable Use Policy.
