Stony Brook employees may be entrusted through the course of their work with confidential data including protected, sensitive, or personally identifiable information regarding research, intellectual property, students, parents, staff, faculty, alumnae, donors, or volunteers. This type of information is protected by State law and may not be used for any other purpose than those assigned in your position description. Accessing, using and/or disclosing confidential data or personally identifiable information for any reason other than the legitimate pursuit of the individual's employment duties or in ways that jeopardize the security of such information constitutes misuse. All employees are charged with safeguarding the University network and may not disclose their login credentials. Access to any University system with an employee's login (username and password) is the responsibility of the employee. Employees are also responsible for immediately reporting to the Information Security officer in DoIT the (suspected or actual) use of their login by someone other than themselves. An employee's access to confidential data or personally identifiable information of the University is conditioned upon the employee's acceptance of the obligations described in this confidentiality agreement. The employee's obligation to protect such confidential or sensitive information continues after termination of employment. Any misuse or unauthorized release of such information, either during or subsequent to the conclusion of employment with Stony Brook University, may be grounds for legal action and/or disciplinary action up to and including termination from employment.
