IT Infrastructure
4.3.1 Does the university have a comprehensive IT policy?
The following describe the policy adapted by the University with respect to IT
Green Computing policy
University uses E-mail as the primary communication medium. All academic
and administrative information are transferred by Email thereby reducing
paper printing. All academic related workflow are done through the intranet
enabled web portal.
Information Security policy
As computing systems and networks are shared facilities, their misuse can
affect others.
Each individual student, staff, and faculty member in the University is
expected to use these shared resources with consideration for others.
Individuals are also expected to be informed and responsible for protecting
their own information resources in any environment. It is unacceptable for
anyone to use University information resources to perform unethical or
unlawful academic or business acts or to violate any law
The resources included in the scope of this security policy statement are:
Information, data, in any medium or form such as printed paper, digital,
video, and audio representations
The computing hardware and software systems which access and
manipulate information
The network systems which transport information.
The resources may reside in many different settings and environments and
may be used for any academic or administrative purpose. Legal constraints
directly affect the use of some of these resources. University policy may also
affect the use of information resources.
Security risks are evaluated, and appropriate procedures are selected and
implemented by the individuals responsible for such assets
