Security Overview

EdCom works with MedEd clients to ensure that all computers are in compliance with the mandatory UCSD Network Security Policy (02/24/2009).  External Site / New Window This policy applies to all students into MedEd or University resources from their home computer, from their laptop while on campus, or from any student computer lab. It also applies to faculty and staff logging in from departmental computers.


The UCSD Network Security Policy sets a Minimum Network Connection Standard.  ALL computers MUST have anti-virus, firewall, and anti-spyware software  programs or services installed, active, and kept up-to-date. In addition, all critical operating system updates must be installed in a timely fashion.


To help you configure your computer, EdCom provides the following help sheets.
