Unfortunately, the cyber attack on the network of Eindhoven University of Technology is a recent example of this. You can help protect your own and the university’s data from malicious parties. In the coming weeks, you will receive more information about what you can do to handle personal data and/or research data responsibly and how you can protect yourself against cybercrime.
Tips for working securely
It is often said "I have nothing to hide", but everyone has data that should not be public, such as research data, personnel files or annual interview forms. You don't want this data to be made public. Therefore, be aware of what you can do to prevent this.
On the website of the university you can find 'Tips for working securely'. How can you handle information securely and consciously, how do you recognise suspicious situations, why is it important to lock your screen when you walk away from your workplace or how can you securely send your passport?
Fast classes
In the coming period, you can learn in 10-15 minutes how to recognise unsafe situations and behaviour and how to handle information and data securely. During the fast classes you will receive tips & tricks on how to deal with personal data, data security or information security. You can immediately apply this in your daily work.
The fast classes are given in Dutch and English around lunchtime. Registration is not necessary.
