From a security perspective, there is much at the University that is worthy of protection. Examples include students and personnel, information (e.g. research, student assignments), materials and the physical premises. The security organisation works to ensure that any party that may wish to inflict damage on the institution will not succeed, either by intercepting attempted attacks or by swiftly resolving attacks.

For students, it is important that you know to whom you can turn if you become of aware of any activity that may be injurious to the University. This could, for example, include vandalism, break-ins, the unusual functioning of IT systems, or the presence on the University’s premises of individuals who clearly should not be there.
