All, It was recently brought to my attention that our students are being asked to email documents containing potentially sensitive data from their student email accounts to our Admissions department. While this process is technically secure since the data is encrypted, I believe it promotes a detrimental practice to our students. The last thing I want is for our students to think it's OK to email sensitive data whenever that information is needed by a third party. Right now I am just looking for better alternatives that I can present to our Admissions department as a way to prevent this process from continuing. Any and all suggestions and/or feedback are greatly appreciated! -C. Chris Green Information Security Officer University of Texas at Tyler
