RedDot Account Creation Security Policy

  1. Account Request
    1. A UWG Department, Division, or Organization may request a RedDot account by emailing a RedDot System Administrator.
    2. The System Administrator will confirm the request with a return email, and by identifying and carbon-copying the Department or Division Head, or if the account request is for an Organization the sponsoring Department or Division Head.
  2. Account Set-up 
    1. Faculty/Staff: When an account is requested the account users & admins are also identified. Any faculty or staff member may be a site admin as long as approved by the Department or Division Head. When the account is created in RedDot the users are identified by the Department/Division and imported through LDAP. 
    2. Students/GRAs: Students and GRAs are permitted to be site admins during the development phase of the requested website account.  However, once the site is launched live they can no longer have admin privileges. They may remain as users, but not have the authority to publish to the live web. This process must always be approved by an authorized faculty or staff member.
