Department of IT Security
Welcome to IT security!
Due to ongoing digitalisation, FH Aachen uses information technology (IT) in almost all processes and services. As the degree of dependency increases, the demands on the reliability of IT processes rise significantly. Information security is becoming increasingly important.
The university management is therefore supported and advised by an IT security officer in fulfilling its responsibility for reliable, functional and proper IT operations.
In organisational terms, the IT Security Department is a Department assigned to the Rectorate.
FH Aachen develops its information security concept on the basis of the information security guideline. The information security concept, which is subject to continuous improvement, in turn feeds the FH Aachen information security process.
For all other cases, please use the DVZ ticket system.

Information security concerns us all! Train your information security skills.
The Information Security Department provides members of FH Aachen with a selection of e-learning courses on IT security.
As a rule, the course content is modular and can be completed independently of each other. The resulting flexibility and the simple and clear presentation of the content is suitable for all groups of employees as an introduction to information security.
The learning success can be checked independently by the learner.
