IT Workshop Presented by CoM IT Thursday, November 20th 3:30 – 5:00 PM MSB ROOM 4051 Speakers: Jesse Fatherree, Wade Hedgren, Kent Norton We will be covering these items: Forwarding Device Encryption CoM IT Website Cloud File Sharing/Storage
Auto Forwarding Auto Forwarding of UC to personal services (e.g., Gmail, AOL, Yahoo, etc.) is strictly prohibited. Under no circumstances should s containing ePHI be forwarded to a non affiliated service provider. Forwarding s between affiliated entities (i.e., UC, UC Health, Children’s Hospital and the VA) is permitted and is compliant with information security guidelines for safe data practices, as s between these affiliated entities utilize automated encryption methods. The auto-forward option at the server level will be subject to an oversight process allowing only auto-forwarding to an affiliated entity account (i.e., UC, UC Health, Children’s Hospital and the VA). To request server level auto-forwarding a request can be made by calling the Service Desk at 556-HELP (4357) or by ing If approved by the CoM, the CoM IT will work with the university to establish the server level auto-forwarding.
Accounts and Dually Compensated Employees accounts are automatically generated by the HR systems. If you are employed by multiple employers you may already have multiple accounts to try to manage. This is typically the case with physicians hired both by UC and UCP/UC Health. To help simplify the management of multiple mailboxes for employees, UC Health will allow for all incoming messages to be delivered to the UC mail system. A UCHealth.com alias can be created to direct incoming UCHealth.com s over to UC accounts.

USB Device Encryption Excerpts from UC HIPAA Information Security Policy Removable or Portable Media Devices All faculty, staff, trainees, students and others in a University of Cincinnati designated health care component may never store ePHI on thumb drives or other removable media devices unless they meet University of Cincinnati encryption standards. Smartphones and Other Mobile Data Devices Encryption: The data on the mobile data device must be encrypted. Backups of data from one device to another device that is not encrypted (e.g., if a backup of a tablet is made using an unencrypted computer) the backup data must be encrypted.
