About Information Security

The Office of Information Security is integral to the protection of data, campus technology resources and the existence of a safe computing environment for the university community. We work to safeguard against and respond to threats to Elon’s digital resources and networking infrastructure. We strive to bring you the latest information about phishing, scams and security alerts.  We encourage you to use this site to educate yourself, share what you learn and be diligent in protecting your identity, your devices and university data.

And remember – Information Technology and IT Support Services will never ask for your personal information. Please refrain from entering this type of information into AI platforms such as Copilot, ChatGPT and Google Gemini, as there is risk of it being accessed by unauthorized parties, putting your privacy and Elon security at risk. Lastly, remember to take your Security Awareness Training if you have not done so already!
