First steps to rebuild the planned central helpdesk (task location RZ)
Due to the retirement of a long-time staff member in the counselling service and strongly changing profiles in the use of the PC pool of the computer centre, some changes in the (student) counselling service have become necessary. Due to low demand at the computer centre, afternoon and evening counselling will be discontinued in favour of a stable service with additional tasks in the area of e-examinations and the bw teaching pool. User counselling is not affected by this.
Priority goal of RZ 2023: IT security
Irrespective of the search for a new head of the computer centre, which is currently underway, major activities will take place in the area of large IT projects, such as IDM, FIS, web presence and FDM.

Activities on various levels, such as network segmentation, introduction of a DMZ or two-factor authentication are currently being tackled.
