Information security is essential for protecting our personal data and the university’s confidential information. We need to work together to ensure our data and privacy are not threatened. Here are some security tips to help everyone to maintain campus information security:

1. Protect Information Security:
   • Do not engage in or attempt any actions that could harm the information security of any network, information, or communication systems or facilities within or outside the university.
2. Maintain Security Measures:
   • Do not disable, interfere with, or remove security measures of information and communication systems or facilities on campus without authorization.
3. Use Software Legally:
   • Ensure all software is legally obtained and has the necessary licenses. Unauthorized software should be removed immediately.
4. Ensure Authorized Access:
   • Use authorized accounts to access any computer systems within or outside the campus. Do not use unauthorized accounts or impersonate others.
5. Follow Account and Password Guidelines:
   • Keep passwords secure, do not write them down where others can easily access or see them, change them regularly, use strong passwords, and enable two-factor authentication for added protection.
6. Comply with University Policies and Macau Laws:
   • Be aware of and comply with relevant policies and regulations, such as the “Acceptable Use Policy on ICTO Computing Facilities, Campus Network and Internet”, “University Policy on Use of Computer Software within Campus”, “Law on Combating Computer Crime” and “Personal Data Protection Act”.

Please be reminded that any illegal actions, whether intentional or unintentional, will lead to serious consequences for both individuals and the university, and result in legal liability.
