  • Password Guide – This guidelines outlines password requirements and suggestions for Sul Ross information resources

  • Local Admin Rights – In accordance with SRSU’s Administrator Access Policy (APM 7.12), all requests for administrative access credentials must be evaluated and approved by the Office of Information Technology (OIT).  SRSU faculty and staff are required to briefly describe, justify, and document their request for administrative access credentials with a Local Administrator Access Form, available from OIT.  Administrative and other special-access accounts may have extended and overarching privileges, therefore, these accounts are restricted and granted only to those with an academic or business justification.  The process of granting, controlling, and monitoring these accounts is extremely important to the overall SRSU Information Security Program.  Accordingly, administrative access credentials may be audited for compliance and revoked by OIT at any time.
  • Email Forwarding – SRSU does not permit email to be forwarded to external accounts
