The Network Security Center (NSC) is charged with protecting the University's networks from malicious computer attacks, service interruptions, and network harassment. As such, the NSC works to:

  • Identify, contain and, when possible, prevent the propagation of malicious network traffic that impacts the campus network;
  • Educate, consult with, and provide tools for University IT staff to assist them with protecting their information assets and staff;
  • Provide investigative services at the request of University governing bodies.

Additionally, the NSC assists with ensuring that information-related laws, regulations, and policies are adhered to in a consistent manner.
