Security Timeout on Desktops

You may have noticed that we have recently changed the time-out on computer desktops. The time-outs occur after 30 minutes of inactivity which then you are required to login.

With single-sign on capabilities, once you login to the desktop you also have access to the portal where sensitive information about you and your students is stored.  Therefore, we thought it prudent to decrease the timeout from 1 hour to 30 minutes to safeguard your personal information.
