Hi, Dave:
Our CIO, Andrew Moore, sent out the following email last week:
Faculty and Staff,
Do you have information on inside.mines.edu that you still use? Recently IT was alerted by one of our cyber security partners that this site may unnecessarily expose information to parties external to Mines. As we investigated the alert, we realized the vast majority of data was last updated prior to 2017; and https://inside.mines.edu was deprecated some time ago, as indicated by the banner in place on the landing of the home page.
IT will be removing all access to inside.mines.edu on the morning of February 28, 2024.
This will include personal home pages that are hosted there (e.g., pages with addresses like https://inside.mines.edu/~username). If you need the files that are hosted on this site, please let us know by contacting the IT Service Desk at xHELP (x4357) or submitting an IT Service Request so we can help you migrate them to a secure location.
Data security and proper access control are ever-changing. We appreciate your help in minimizing access to data which is no longer needed.
Andrew
