Hi Tim,

 

Users remotely accessing any sensitive/confidential information remotely
are required to use VPN at UMass.

Subject: [SECURITY] Remote Access to Staff Desktops

 

Hi All,

 

We are receiving an increasing number of requests from staff to remotely
access their desktops, for a variety of reasons.

 

I would be interested in hearing if any other Universities allow this,
and if so how you are providing secure access, or if you have any
thoughts/comments on the matter.

 

Thanks,

 

Tim
