Highlight for Staff: Secure Your Work Files & Access with Azure Information Protection & 2 Factor Authentication

Dealing with confidential data during daily work? Worrying whether your account is compromised and being used by others?  Here we have two solutions for CUHK staff to protect your important documents and the access by your CUHK account .

Protect Individual Email, Document and File with Azure Information Protection (AIP)
If you need to exchange, store or edit any sensitive / confidential data, Azure Information Protection (AIP) can secure your documents or files according to the confidential level.

AIP is implemented for protecting University's digital information based on the sensitivity / confidential level of the data . With labelling and classification by AIP, you can protect each of your emails and files from being viewed or edited by the unauthorized people.

Learn More about AIP: https://www.itsc.cuhk.edu.hk/en-gb/all-it/information-security/data-classification-protection-with-aip

The AIP is available to CUHK staff now!  Please contact your departmental IT staff for installation.

Protect your system / application access with Two Factor Authentication (2FA)
If you are looking for a solution to enhance the security of your account which is used to access your PCs, servers, VPN, O365 applications, etc., Two Factor Authentication (2 FA) is a good choice.

A 2FA solution, DUO 2FA, is now available to protect your user accounts.  It secures your system / application access by asking for a second factor, i.e. Duo Push Response or One-time Passcode, from a designated device (e.g. your mobile device), during login.

Learn More about 2FA: https://www.itsc.cuhk.edu.hk/en-gb/all-it/information-security/two-factor-authentication-2fa

The Duo 2FA is available to CUHK staff now!  You may contact your departmental IT staff for more details.

Briefing sessions for staff about AIP and 2FA will be held in early Jun. Stay tuned!
