POLICY IMPLEMENTATION SUMMARY
Upon approval by the University, business units will have 12 months to comply with the policy.
Data security services are already in place (such as encryption of emails and mobile computing
devices). Business units are expected to utilize existing University data security services to
protect confidential or private information that is not already secure. When they have questions
about whether or not information is considered confidential or private, they can contact the
Information Security Office for guidance. UMDNJ’s Information Security Office and its
technology organizations will be providing active assistance with the policy’s technical
requirements. Training and Awareness material is already posted on the Information Security
Office’s website.
