IT Security Raising Awareness About Copyright Violations
The University of Florida IT Security Team wants to raise your awareness about copyright violations. Sharing copyrighted material, including music, movies, software and some intellectual property, without authorization is illegal. It is a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) of 1998 and other state and federal laws. UF policies support legislation by prohibiting copyright violations. In addition to legal penalties, faculty, staff, and students who violate copyright law may face UF disciplinary action up to and including dismissal. With your help, we hope to prevent copyright violations at UF. For a comprehensive document on copyright, visit the University’s General Counsel FAQs page about copyright at http://www.generalcounsel.ufl.edu/faq/Copyright.pdf.
