Cyber Incident Reporting

The IT department serves as the liaison between the District, its users, and servers and network to ensure compliance with Federal, State and District guidelines for the colleges, District services, and the Foundations. These responsibilities involve interacting with a variety of departments on campus to ensure the adequacy and effectiveness of internal firewalls and to ensure security and compliance with SOCCCD policies.

IT also works with college constituencies to identify and develop a plan to mitigate significant risks to the District networks. One way that risks are mitigated is by assisting with cyber incident measures through awareness and periodic training.
