The Information Security Office has outlined vital recommendations to enhance the security of ASU web domains. Key actions include implementing secure socket layer (SSL) logins for sites lacking digital certificates, centralizing digital certificate management, and cleaning up outdated websites. Departments are urged to improve their website management and ensure academic freedom is balanced with oversight. A thorough scan for security risks and a clear inventory of site ownership are critical for safeguarding university overall digital presence. Collaboration with department owners to resolve security issues is essential.
