Tearm & Policy

Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur (IIT Kharagpur) is a large, residential, and research
intensive academic campus with a diverse and complex digital infrastructure that supports teaching,
research, administration, innovation, industry collaboration, student activities, and residential
services. This policy establishes the minimum cybersecurity requirements applicable across the
Institute. All members of the IIT Community share the responsibility of understanding and complying
with it. The policy is a public document and is available on the Institute and CIC websites.
Attacks and security incidents constitute a risk to the academic mission of the institute. The loss or
corruption of data or unauthorized disclosure of information from research and instructional
computers, student records, and financial systems could greatly hinder the legitimate activities of
Institute faculty, staff, and students. The Institute also has a responsibility to reasonably secure its
campus network and IT resources from misuse. Failure to exercise due diligence may lead to
liability for damage done by persons accessing the network facility from or through the institute.
Like many other organizations, IIT Kharagpur has experienced a variety of security incidents of
varying severity. Management of these incidents is the collective responsibility of the institute
community. Failure to meet that responsibility could result in a tarnished reputation and also a
potential liability.
The purpose of this policy is to establish guidelines, procedures, and requirements to ensure
appropriate protection of the campus network and IT resources of the institute. The policy is
intended to protect the integrity of campus network and IT resources of IIT Kharagpur and to
mitigate the risks and losses associated with security threats to campus network and IT resources.
In doing so, this policy also addresses the issues of confidentiality and integrity of personal and
institute information.
The approved IT Security Policy is to be a public document, and IIT community should be made
aware of the policy and the requirement to abide by it. Failure to abide by any part of the security
policy by a user may result in restrictions placed on the user’s access to the campus network and IT
resources as decided by the competent authority of the institute. The user will also be solely
responsible and liable for any legal actions or any other implications arising out of failure to comply
with any part of this policy.
