Did someone you worked with leave the University within the last year? You may have content in danger of being deleted.
According to the Account Lifecycle policy (est. 2024), Google and Box accounts owned by people who leave the University are deactivated, and the OIT is preparing to delete thousands of these deactivated accounts.
⚡️ Here's a breakdown of what's happening:
|
- 📆 Roughly 13,000 Google and 7000 Box accounts will reach 365 days since they were deactivated and will be deleted this June.
- 🗑️ These accounts have been marked Delete__NetID or [Pending Deletion].
-
‼️ The data from these accounts will be deleted. To retain data in these accounts you must move the contents to a shared drive.
- 🚫 The OIT will not reactivate these accounts or transfer any data from them.
|
|
|
REMINDER: Content created by any graduating student while at Notre Dame will be deleted in July. Be sure any documents and files your student worker(s) created and/or own are stored in a Shared Drive.

⚡ What’s happening
To improve security and keep your software current, your University-managed Mac will now receive automatic updates for Mac applications through Jamf Pro, our Apple device management system.
🔔 What to expect
|
- Update Notifications: When an application update is ready, you will be alerted via Notre Dame branded notifications.
- Automatic App Closure Notification: If an application is not closed within several days of the notification after alerting the user, Jamf Pro may automatically close it to complete the update.
- Initial Frequency: Expect a higher volume of notifications in the first two weeks as applications are updated.
- Restart Requirement: Some updates may necessitate a computer restart (at your convenience).
|
✅ What you need to know and do
|
- Pop-up update notifications are designed to help you.
- Take a moment to follow the instructions.
- Close and reopen the application at your earliest convenience.
- To complete the update process, you must quit the application.

Email Security Tool Enhancement
Have you recently reported a potential phishing message from your inbox and wondered what happened next? A new feature of the email security solution that was introduced in November will let you know what the investigation found!
The email security solution does a great job of keeping scam messages from hitting inboxes, but sometimes something phishy can still get through. So, reporting anything that seems suspicious is an important way to keep Notre Dame safe.

Improvements to mentions
Want to @mention someone without adding them to the whole conversation? When mentioning a user that is not already in the conversation, you now have the option to add them and send the message, or just send the message without adding them.
