Network Services
The University of Utah’s Network Services team works closely with local network administrators to support, monitor, and optimize network performance while maximizing network security and availability. Services provided include enterprise networking, wireless, firewall, load balancing, and VPN. A large part of network management is prioritizing the three core mission areas which are Clinical, Academic, and Research. Using enterprise management systems, the Network Services team strives to provide a reliable experience to all students, faculty, staff, and visitors.
The University Information Technology (UIT) network is considered a central UIT resource and should be adequately available to all UIT stakeholders in support of approved departmental efforts, as approved and governed by the necessary IT oversight committees.
The Health Sciences Center (HSC) network serves to connect the HSC campus areas to the main campus network services while providing necessary and appropriate security measures in order to facilitate the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of HSC data resources.
The network operations team places an importance on:
- Maintaining a consistent and secure experience for all users
- Providing timely solutions to customer requests
- Promoting enterprise network best practices
- Utilizing data to maintain robust network performance
