Harvard University is committed to protecting information resources that are critical to its academic and research mission.

Harvard is equally committed to preserving an environment that encourages academic and research collaboration through the responsible use of information technology resources.

Everyone at Harvard has a responsibility for proper handling and protection of confidential information. All users must comply with the Information Security Policies at this site, and with University policy addressing  federal laws such as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.
