You are on the road and want to watch the lecture recording, but you don’t have internet? You want to watch a digital lecture, but the video takes forever to load because your internet connection is not sufficient? Or do you as a lecturer want to offer your students the possibility to watch a video independently from RWTHmoodle?

With the open source software GitLab, software and web projects can be versioned. In addition, versions of the code can be stored and documented. Digital archives give the possibility to organize, self-host and manage the versions. GitLab is used at RWTH Aachen University with pleasure and actively. However, after projects have been processed, a lot of data often accumulates that is no longer used. To prevent a mountain of data garbage from accumulating in GitLab, a Project LifeCycle was designed and introduced.

Every now and then you hear and read about macros in Office applications, about documents in which macros are included. These are often sent by e-mail and can lead to dangerous security incidents.
Of course, RWTH Aachen University and the IT Center have taken security measures in this regard. But not everyone is aware of what macros actually are and how dangerous they are not only for private individuals but also for companies. In the following, we will inform you about the most important risks and explain how you can protect yourself.
Mobile campus networks – implementation with WLAN or 5G
What are mobile campus networks?
Mobile campus networks are characterised by locally or regionally limited network coverage and administration. Mostly, these networks are based on mobile radio technology and are usually used by industrial companies or university institutions for their individual needs and requirements. These networks are managed either by the company concerned, the university itself, a commissioned telecommunications operator or a network supplier. A combination is also possible.
