IT Security Training

Overview

President Brown announced in October that IT security training would be mandatory for all University of Colorado employees. This was relayed to CU-Boulder employees by Chancellor Peterson. As employees of the university we are each entrusted with protecting the campus computing and networking resources as well as protecting sensitive information. A security training program has been designed by the System IT Security Office with the intent of clarifying this responsibility. This website will provide you with information about that training.
