  • June 2019 Human Resources Website Security Initiative

    Human Resources and the Financial Systems departments have been working with ITS to secure high risk documents on our website to avert fraudulent activity. Currently, our website has forms and instructions that specifically deal with sensitive information and the goal to reduce university risk is to secure those forms on our website via SharePoint, so anyone with a Loyola login (UVID) and password are able to access those documents. In the coming weeks, some of the HR and Finance forms will be updated to SharePoint URLs. At that time we will also establish redirect links to ensure that the original forms are not accessible without login credentials. If there are any questions, please contact Human Resources at hr-wtc@luc.edu.
