Computer Security File Sharing The use of programs such as KAZAA, Morpheus, Gnutella, LimeWire, Bear Share, utorrent, Emule, and imesh that are used to download music, movies, and games are not appropriate use of the UVU and UEN network. These programs pose a significant security RISK TO YOU since you are allowing anyone to access your hard drive and computer resources to use it for possible illegal purposes. File sharing also creates large amounts of network traffic causing the college and statewide networks to slow down. Additionally, almost all files that are downloaded are copyrighted materials that are illegal to share and download. You can be prosecuted for doing such.
Anti-Virus Software Computer Security McAfee/EPO UVU has a site license for McAfee. Every computer on campus should have a McAfee Virus shield in the system tray. It is the user s responsibility to make sure an Anti-Virus program is installed and working properly. Home Computers You may install McAfee virus protection on your home computer if you do not have any Virus protection software. Download McAfee from the Software Downloads channel in myuvu.
Spam/Phishing Email Email may contain a link asking for username and password or contain a virus. Do not click a link or provide this information. Be cautious! Reputable organizations such as UVU and your bank will NEVER ask for your username and password. You can go to www.mcafee.com and search on the word HOAX. Or if an Email has a subject, you can search on the subject to find out if it is a hoax. Forward spam emails onto spam@uvu.edu. Backup your Data Computer Security Save your data in at least 2 places, especially your grades. You can use the network and your hard drive or an external device such as a Jump drive, or CD.
