What are the regulations governing Information Technology?

The rules for the use of IT at the University are contained in the IT Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) for students, and other policy and procedural documents. These can be found on the University Intranet, and, in the case of the AUP, at the back of the "User Guide to Information Systems" booklet that is freely available. The latter gives further detail on instructions that must be followed. Each user is responsible for reading and adhering to the contents of these documents. Failure to observe any part could result in disciplinary and/or legal action being taken by the University against offenders. In addition, it is the responsibility of all users to familiarise themselves with current IT legislation, and act in accordance with it.
