Since so many Cornell employees have moved to work from home or hybrid we have seen a large increase in pet hair, dander and dirt inside computers that were brought in for repair. Cleaning dust, dirt and germs out and off of your computer is important for several reasons:Health and Hygiene:
The scenario: you’re flying to an Educause conference and working on your session presentation, only you need to grab just one more piece of data from your Cornell Box account. So you hop onto the airline’s free WIFI service and find what you need. You’re on a plane, 40,000 feet in the…
By now you’re quite familiar with the two-chime notification of Two-Step Login, that extra security step that helps protect your NetID. Log in to a service, “ba-ding!” grab your phone, push the green button and away you go.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a long-established research and scholarly pursuit at Cornell, and with generative AI, everyone in the community has new opportunities to explore AI.
One of the broadest layers of defense against attacks by bad actors on Cornell's digital resources is the awareness and reporting of suspicious activity by the university’s students, faculty, staff, and alumni.
For years, Cornell community members have continually helped strengthen the layers of security protecting the university's digital resources by forwarding suspicious email messages to the IT Security Office. To make it even easier for customers to notify us of potential threats, we are introducing…

Departmental Box Accounts
Box departmental folders have a default storage capacity of 50GB. (You can request more if your department needs additional space.)
Use these instructions to check your departmental folder’s current capacity.
On February 19, 2024 storage caps were placed on Box and Microsoft 365 cloud storage services. This reflects similar limits added to Cornell Google Workspace accounts in 2022.

The Microsoft 365 Home page was recently updated to make it faster and easier to find the files you and your collaborators are working with.
It has a Recommended section that lets you know about activity you may want to be aware of. It includes files you've recently shared, files that…
