Please Review: Updates to Departmental Security Contact Policy

March 23, 2023

Dear Colleagues

Following formal campus review and revision, we are pleased to announce that the updated Departmental Security Contact Policy has been ratified effective Dec. 1, 2022. 

What this means for you

This Policy defines Department-level responsibilities for ensuring prompt and appropriate action in the event of an information security incident. The main purpose of the Policy remains unchanged: to ensure that ISO is able to contact the proper people in each Department and have them take appropriate action in the event of a security incident. 

The specific responsibilities for both Departments and Security Contacts have been updated and clarified, along with the definitions and resources associated with this Policy. A summary of all changes is available.

If you have any questions, please contact security@berkeley.edu

Regards, 

Allison Henry, Chief Information Security Officer
