Posted 1/28/2019 - Shared Accounts Going Away
In an effort to align NSU's technology practices with the State of Oklahoma - Information Security Policies, Procedures, and Guidelines, we have identified a need to mitigate Shared Accounts at Northeastern State University.
A Shared Account is when the same username and password to an account is shared among a group of people. These accounts are often shared with Non-NSU Members, Visitors and Guests, Employees and Students (former and current) which violates State policy. These accounts also have elevated access to many of NSU's systems.
We will begin taking action on shared accounts which have not been used within the past 60 days, per Section 2.3 of the State of Oklahoma - Information Security Policies, Procedures, and Guidelines, by deactivating them. These accounts will not be reactivated.
You may assist us in mitigating this effort by submitting a ticket to specify student worker(s) and employee(s) who need access, which they are currently utilizing through the Shared Account, assigned to their NSU User Account. You may refer to the following services to create a ticket:
