Cybersecurity
Clean desk policy
No matter where you’re working, follow the clean desk policy.
Lock away sensitive stuff: When you’re done for the day or stepping away, put away any documents, devices or notes with private information.
Downloading of unauthorised software
Only download from approved sources: Stick to software and applications approved by Unisa for work or study. Say no to free or cracked software.
Multi-Factor Authentication
Enable MFA on all your accounts: It adds an extra step to verify it’s really you logging in. Keep your MFA device safe: Whether it’s your phone or another device, lock it with a strong PIN or fingerprint (biometric lock).
Social media safety
Think before you share. Keep details like your student number, home address or cellphone number off public platforms. If it’s personal, keep it private.
