Website Editing

You can use this account to edit web sites in the http://www.sjsu.edu/ domain. The University Webmaster can provide you access to development and staging directories to perform your web design.

Data Center

Systems run by University Computing Systems Department are rack mounted in a monitored, climate controlled, physically restricted cold room with dual UPS and climate controls. System backups are via our central backup system that includes a disk spool and tape library system. Servers are manually and automatically monitored for availability, processes, CPU, disk utilization, and other critical elements.

Anti-Spam Solution

University Computing Systems answered the user calls for a flexible, affordable anti-spam solution. The campus needed a system that would work for all 30+ e-mail systems on campus without deleting important e-mail accidentally.

The solution was to deploy an open-source spam tagging system at the SMTP gateway that uses a series of algorithms to determine if an e-mail is spam. The system marks suspect e-mail with the phrase [[JUNK]] in the subject line of the e-mail. Users can set their e-mail client to take the appropriate action in filtering suspect mail into a special folder before deleting.

In order offer spam tagging to all 30+ campus e-mail systems, we are unable to offer individual filtering and other features that this and other anti-spam systems can provide. More anti-spam features would require the e-mail systems to be administered by UCAT. Meanwhile, we've provided Lotus Notes users with additional tips for individualized filtering options. See your technician for more information.

Campus Anti-Virus Solution

UCAT negotiated the acquisition of desktop and server anti-virus for all SJSU-owned computers and servers. Your desktop support has the software and can install anti-virus software.
