Concerns over the security and data-collection practices of mobile apps, including social media platforms, have been making headlines lately. University of Toronto staff, faculty, librarians and students are encouraged to review best practices for personal security and how to reduce the risks.

To help, the Office of the Chief Information Security Officer has put together guidelines and quick tips to reduce the risk for our U of T community on both personal and University-owned devices. View the guidelines here: https://uoft.me/guidelines-mobileapps.

These guidelines will evolve as new information becomes available.
