Statement

Understanding the importance of information security, individual responsibilities, and accountability are paramount to achieving university security goals. This can be accomplished with a combination of general information, security awareness training, and targeted training. The security awareness and training information needs to be ongoing and updated as needed.

This Control applies to all West Texas A&M employees or third parties including vendors or partners whose employees use University information resources or networks to fulfil their duties.

All new employees shall complete security awareness training prior to, or at least within 30 days of, being granted access to any University information resources. This shall be part of the new employee’s orientation training session.
All users must acknowledge they have read, understand, and will comply with the university requirements regarding computer security policies and procedures.
All users shall complete and acknowledge the completion of security awareness training on an annual basis.
Departments may require additional incidental training and require acknowledgement as determined by the department.
