As part of an effort to increase the security and reliability of Carolina’s information technology resources, ITS is implementing changes to faculty and staff connections to the ConnectCarolina application. The University’s data systems are under constant attack, with millions of unwanted connection attempts each month. ConnectCarolina, the administrative system for student services (and in 2014, HR/Payroll and Finance), contains sensitive data and it’s important to protect this data from these attacks by using secure methods to access ConnectCarolina. These changes will go into effect on the evening of Dec. 18.
