Incident Response Policies

Due to a variety of issues, including the safety and privacy of DLSAU’s students, faculty and staff, it is imperative that a formal reporting and response policy be followed when responding to security incidents.

These are policies and procedures for DLSAU University faculty, staff and students to report any potential security incidents. The policy will also outline the anticipated response by ITSMO.
