On Thursday, April 4th, we're making a change to Brown email to better protect you against spoofed emails (fraudulent emails that pretend to be from someone you know at Brown).

If Google suspects that a message is attempting to spoof a Brown address, you’ll see a warning at the top of the email.

Some reasons this warning may appear are:

Join us in welcoming our new Chief Digital and Information Officer (CDO/CIO), Bill Thirsk.

Bill joined Brown in Februrary. Computing & Information Services is excited to be a digital organization with his leadership.

The following is excerpted from the news.brown.edu article about his appointment:

Brown Faculty - help inform us about your use of technology.

Brown is partnering with the EDUCAUSE Center for Analysis and Research - a nonprofit association dedicated to advancing higher education through the use of IT - to participate in a survey that will help us learn how to provide you with better technology services.

Why Data Privacy Day?

Privacy is important year-round, but this event is observed internationally each year on January 28th to promote awareness about the many ways personal information is collected, stored, used, and shared.

As of today, Brown has turned on Two-Step Verification for access to Office 365, and a few other services that use Active Directory Federated Services (ADFS) as their authentication method.  

Use of Two-Step Verification provides better security for all, as it ensures that people accessing the service have another way of proving their identity.
