With the recent surge in employees nationwide working remotely, the National Cybersecurity Alliance has released a set of tips regarding online security practices to protect individuals and the university from these security risks. The Office of Information Security Services is working to keep your information safe from cyber criminals. You can also find us on Facebook and Twitter. We also provide you with the information you need to protect your personal or work computer. Our office is responsible for managing University technology policies and procedures, including what to do in the event of a security breach or how to dispose of confidential information. The Office of Information Security Services is responsible for the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of all information assets at Ball State University. If you need assistance removing Malwarebytes from your Ball State-owned computer, please contact the Technology HelpDesk by submitting a request or by calling them at 76.
If you are not currently running any antivirus software on your university-owned computer, contact the Technology HelpDesk to have Carbon Black Defense installed.
To determine which antivirus software you have installed, refer to this Technology HelpDesk Knowledge Base article. Sophos anti-virus software is also an acceptable alternative if you're already running it. The Office of Information Security Services recommends the use of Carbon Black Defense for the protection of university-managed devices when compatible. Use of this software has now been blocked from running on university-owned computers and it should be removed from all machines that are being used in support of university business. Information Technology has been advised by the cybersecurity company Malwarebytes that there may be unlicensed installations of their Malwarebytes anti-malware software on Ball State-owned systems.
