SFU Mail Upgrade: External Apps/Tools Self-Check |
Background
In Summer 2024, faculty, staff, and graduate students be migrated to Exchange Online (EXO), a cloud-based email platform. This modern platform will better support the academic, research and administrative needs of the university community.
To align with EXO's rigorous cybersecurity and privacy standards and to ensure the best performance, SFU IT recommends using Microsoft apps such as Outlook to access SFU Mail. All external tools, particularly those critical for teaching, research and business, must meet the modern internet security and privacy requirements to work with SFU Mail. Apps that don’t align with these requirements will stop working. Ensuring cybersecurity compliance is important to maintain a secure and reliable email system at SFU.
SFU IT has begun to compile a list of known approved tools/applications.
If you do not see your app on the list, you may complete this self-check to determine if you may be impacted by this change, and what steps you may need to take.
