Level 4 File Management OptionsUse Case Recommendation Advantages Disadvantages
Individual Credit Card storage/use
Last Pass (Vault)– Digital Records Storage, Sharing with others
• Self Service • For limited information • Targeted sharing by
information owner
• Very limited scope • Not to be used as a data
repository
Store Level 4 Data where there is no need to upload or download information to desktop
Level 4 SharePoint Site • Data secured in central repository
• No additional cost • Secure access from virtually
anywhere • Can collaborate and co-author
with others on Level 4 documents
• Robust search capability • Self-service permissions • Max. Individual file size 15GB • Max. total space for site
collection: 25TB
• Self-service permissions • Cannot sync to desktop • Cannot share externally • Level 1-3 information would
be subject to Level 4 limitations if stored in the same SharePoint library (no external sharing and no sync to desktop)
Storage of Level 4 Data where there is a need to upload or download information. (i.e. personally-identifiable information that needs to be downloaded)
Level 4 Network Shared Drive (Standard Storage – SOX4)
• Data can be uploaded /downloaded directly to/from mapped network drive without impact to local drive
• Data secured in central repository
• Centralized Permissioning • No File size limit
• Requires VPN connection • Fee for service model • Limited Search capability • No co-authoring available • Call to HUIT helpdesk to
expand storage capacity
Data transfer, backup, or archive
Encrypted Thumb Drive • Data is not exposed to network or desktop
• Limited accessibility
What is Microsoft Teams?• Secure, chat-oriented collaboration tool that brings together several
O365 apps into a single workspace.
• Successor to Skype for Business, enabling peer to peer and group chat, video conferencing, and a view to your calendar.
What do I need to know about Microsoft Teams?• Can access by web or app with virtually identical experience.
• Fully supported on mobile devices.
• Can create individual Teams with file space, persistent chat, video calling, and much more.
• Teams and they’re data are owned by the department.
• Persistent chat can reduce the need for emails.
• It’s available for use now.8

Microsoft Teams Application
• The Microsoft Teams application is considered part of HUITs desktop standards. New computers for both Mac and Windows include the Teams application.
• Microsoft plans to deploy the Microsoft Teams application to existing Office 365 ProPlus production users in January 2020.
– Impact: If we wait for Microsoft to conduct the push, the application will auto-launch on start-up and there will be a large notification window for users to login (Windows).
• HUIT Recommended Approach: Deploy the Microsoft Teams application ahead of Microsoft to give us more flexibility around the deployment settings.
–We will avoid the login notification and initial auto-launch settings.
–The Windows deployment will be silent, but a desktop shortcut will be created.
–The Mac deployment will be very similar to OneDrive. The Microsoft Teams application will be installed in the applications folder silently.
–Our target timeframe for deployment mid-October to mid-November.
–We are planning a DA level communication to FAS

Subject: Windows 7 to Windows 10 Upgrade Requirement
Dear Colleagues,
We write with an important update regarding your Microsoft Windows operating system. Microsoft is ending support for Windows 7 in January 2020 and requires all customers to upgrade to Windows 10 for ongoing support. Critical security updates for Windows 7 will no longer be provided in 2020. Please follow these important steps to keep your computer supported and secure: • Over the next few weeks HUIT staff will reach out with information on how to upgrade your computer to Windows 10. Please
follow their instructions to upgrade.
• If you have questions or are unable to upgrade, please contact the HUIT Service Desk at 617 495-7777 to request a discussion with a Field support representative who can help identify options.
Thank you for helping us keep your computers supported and up to date, and your information secure.
Sincerely,
Christian Hamer
University Chief Information Security Officer
Charles Kling
Managing Director, Harvard University Information Technology Support Services
