Limit your distractions using Google Workspace ”Focus Time”
Introducing an innovative addition to Google Calendar – Focus Time! When it’s time to buckle down and tackle important tasks, this new functionality enables you to create a “focus time” event and activate the “do not disturb” feature. By doing so, you can effectively mute chat notifications throughout the duration of your focused work session.
This empowers you to optimize your productivity and stay undistracted during critical work hours. Give it a try and experience enhanced efficiency with Google Calendar’s Focus Time feature.
Mobile Device Security Reviews / IT Review
All users of electronic mobile devices need to ensure that the security controls, registration, system updates, and account information are met and maintained with current updates.
In accordance with NC State’s Office of Information Technology guidelines, it is mandatory for all mobile devices, including but not limited to Laptops, iPads, and both Android and iPhone cell phones, to meet the minimum security controls. Failing to secure these devices can potentially lead to severe consequences, such as data breaches that compromise sensitive information belonging to both you and others. This, in turn, may result in substantial fines and legal costs for the university.
To mitigate such risks, everyone is asked to complete this mandatory requirement by August 4th, 2023.
