In our ongoing commitment to maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance, we are implementing a new procedure for the creation of UCI Sites websites. Moving forward, individuals will need to request the creation of new websites rather than being able to create them independently. This change is driven by the findings of a recent website audit conducted by the Internal Audit Services department at UC Irvine.
Why the Change?
Our website audit revealed a few areas for improvement in our current system, including how websites are created.
Consistent Quality and Standards: By having a formal request process, we can help ensure that the websites we host adhere to UCI’s quality standards, providing a consistent and secure experience for users. We can ensure that individuals creating websites on our platform read and agree to our Terms of Use and UCI’s Web Policy.
How the New Process Works
- Request Submission: To create a new UCI Sites website, individuals must submit a request detailing the purpose and requirements of the site. This can be done through our website request form. Log in is required to access the form.
- Review and Approval: Submitted requests will be reviewed by our Web Services team.
- Site Creation and Support: Once approved, our team will assist with the initial creation of the website.
Benefits of the New System
- Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring all websites comply with university policies helps us maintain our commitment to legal and regulatory standards.
- Improved Quality Control: Centralized oversight of website creation guarantees a consistent, high-quality experience for all users.
Conclusion
We believe that these changes will significantly enhance the web policy compliance and quality of UCI’s web presence. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding as we implement this new process. If you have any questions or need further information, please feel free to contact our Web Services team.
Thank you for your continued support in making UCI a safer and more compliant digital environment.
