KAUST Community,
As you prepare for upcoming travel, KAUST IT would like to share a few important reminders to help you stay connected, avoid unnecessary costs, and keep your information secure:
KAUST IT updates your device regularly to ensure security, performance, and compatibility. However, for updates to take full effect, you need to restart your device when prompted.
Before you travel, confirm that you can log in to your KAUST device and essential services while disconnected from the KAUST network. This helps avoid access issues while abroad.
Before you leave, ensure your device settings are adjusted to prevent costly international data usage.
Make sure your VPN is set up and working properly so you can securely access KAUST systems from anywhere.
DUO two-factor authentication is necessary to access many KAUST resources off-campus. Make sure it's active and functioning.
Stay in touch with your team using your KAUST extension from anywhere. Download and configure the KAUST Softphone before your trip.
Refresh your knowledge on how to stay cyber-safe while traveling.
Access your files and collaborate with ease from any location using OneDrive and SharePoint.
Download the KAUST SAP mobile apps for HR Connect, Expense and Travel (Concur), and other KAUST Portal Self-services (Business Apps).
Visit the IT Walk-In Support Desk in the IT Building (14), chat with VITA, or call us: 012-808-0910 or 910.
