The Pitfalls of Everyday Life – Information Security in Everyday Life
We all handle sensitive information on a daily basis, whether at the office, at university, or at home. However, we often underestimate how complex the issue of information security has become. Both companies and private individuals have data that needs to be protected, and this data can be stored digitally or, more traditionally, on paper or in our heads. Protecting information assets therefore requires more than just technology: it also means being mindful and responsible in our everyday lives. As attackers continue to develop their methods, we too must regularly train our awareness and knowledge.

Whether it’s suspicious activity on the network, compromised user accounts, or acute cyber attacks – every minute counts in an emergency. In order to be able to respond to security incidents at RWTH even faster and more effectively in the future, the IT Center’s Security Operation Center (SOC) has had an on-call service since June 1, 2025. This means that the SOC team can now also be reached outside regular working hours if necessary, ensuring greater security in the university network around the clock.
