Office 365 Employee Email Investigation website now live
A message from Information Systems & Technology (IST).
Information Systems & Technology (IST) has launched a website for the Office 365 Employee Email Investigation. The new site will offer University employees a central hub for information and resources related to the possible migration of employee email from our on-premise solution to the cloud-based Office 365 environment.
Visit the site to explore the frequently asked questions, review the Information Risk Assessment materials, and most importantly, submit any comments, questions or feedback you may have regarding this work.
What’s next?
Broader campus consultations on this potential change, including in-person and online opportunities for feedback and questions, will be scheduled during the fall 2019 term. Additional communications will be shared once the details are finalized.
Visit the Office 365 Employee Email Investigation website at https://uwaterloo.ca/office-365-employee-email.
Anyone with questions or concerns is invited to submit them using the feedback form at https://uwaterloo.ca/office-365-employee-email/office-365-employee-email-feedback-form. You are also welcome to contact the Chief Information Officer (CIO) directly by sending an email to bruce.campbell@uwaterloo.ca.
Cohesity pioneers the mobile Employer Information Session
by Sara Davis.
Contrary to Waterloo’s typically unpredictable climate, the weather couldn’t have been better on June 18th, 2019. The sun and high temperatures made for the perfect day for Cohesity, an American tech storage company to make a visit to the University of Waterloo campus.
The American company, currently in the process of expanding into Canada, showcased their black and lime green Cohesity semi-truck, just outside of Hagey Hall. Inside the truck, students could attend an information session to learn more about the company. The Cohesity truck is a computer display and mobile presentation space on wheels, which allowed session attendees to immerse themselves in the work of the company.
Proving to draw the attention of those on campus, the truck was visited by those who knew of the session, those who had heard from others on campus, and those walking by. Set up at the entrance to the truck, the Cohesity representatives had brought a variety of promotional materials including pop sockets, semi-truck shaped stress balls, lanyards and more.
The Cohesity team will be returning to our campus in future terms for additional information sessions and have marked a place in the Employer Information Session history books as our first semi-truck information session. We look forward to welcoming them back!
