ForcePoint security restrictions

To enhance protection from internet security threats, infrastructure changes will occur at founding Beaumont and Farmington Hills locations.

To enhance protection from internet security threats, infrastructure changes will occur at founding Beaumont and Farmington Hills locations.  This is in preparation for future restricted access to public data-file-sharing web sites and personal email when using Beaumont devices on the Beaumont Corporate network. Infrastructure changes will occur at founding Beaumont and Botsford hospitals on the following dates:

  • Beaumont Hospital, Grosse Pointe – March 7
  • Beaumont Hospital, Farmington Hills – March 13
  • Beaumont Hospital, Troy – March 20
  • Beaumont Hospital, Royal Oak – March 29

These infrastructure changes are not the activation of the security restriction policy itself, but there is a small potential for impact when accessing public internet sites. For more information, see the IT Bulletin.

If you need access to public data-file-sharing websites and personal email from a Beaumont device that is connected to the Beaumont Corporate network, complete a Security Risk Exception.

For details on Beaumont Health Policy pertinent to this change, please reference the Acceptable Use Policy and the Information Security Policy Watch for more information regarding the security restriction policy change in future updates.
