Information Technology Policies and AI
Understand "Enterprise Data Protection"
Enterprise Data Protection or "EDP" refers ensures that your data is not accessible outside of Brandeis as long as you are using EDP equipped technologies provided by Brandeis such as Gemini, Copilot or Zoom with an @brandeis.edu account. Please be aware that any other product, even if using a "pro" or "paid-for" version, does not necessarily come with these protections.
Data Use Policies
Brandeis University is committed to protecting the privacy of our community. This requires the utmost attention to ensuring the security (and thus confidentiality) of the information collected and maintained by the university. It is important to understand policies relating to data governance, data classifications, copyrighted material and the university's Written Information Security Policy before placing any Brandeis-owned or otherwise sensitive data into AI platforms.
