Information Security & Privacy Compliance

Information security involves prevention against and management of unauthorized access to personal and nonpublic data.

In seeking to balance and protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data, BYU-Idaho is constantly seeking to improve its information security and privacy. Information security involves prevention against and management of unauthorized access, acquisition, and use of any nonpublic data; in contrast, information privacy concerns the appropriate collection and use of personal data and focuses on individual rights. Numerous laws and standards govern the security and privacy of data collected, protected, and used by the university such as student data, financial data, health data, and research data.
