Dear UT Health San Antonio Community:
We are increasingly concerned by the number of phishing incidents targeting students, possibly due to having student directory information (email and phone if the student so allows) available through our publicly facing website uthscsa.edu.
We recognize the business reasons our internal community may want to access student directory information, therefore it will continue to be available through our My UT Health intranet site (MyUTHealth) using the My UT Health Directory icon. Email directory information is also available through the internal Outlook directory.
Effective June 15, 2019, the Student Directory will no longer be available through the external/public facing website uthscsa.edu.
As always, UT Health San Antonio endeavors to be vigilant against malicious attacks to our systems, including phishing and vishing scams. We publish alerts as soon as we become aware of attempts to access your information fraudulently and also urge you to visit our Information Security site (https://infosec.uthscsa.edu/) to keep yourself informed.
Yeman Collier
Vice president and chief information officer
