IT Policy

Computing Facility:

With a view to provide the best computing facility, the Institute has state of the art

systems available on campus as well as brand new up to date laptops for all the

students. We believe that having proper hands-on exposure to the industry standard

equipment is vital for the managers of tomorrow.

Operating system & Software

All our systems are equipped with either Ubuntu Linux Operating Systems or Windows

Operating System. Software like SPSS are available for students. Other specialized

software like SAP is also available for 2nd year students taking IT as speciliazation(

major or minor).

Internet connectivity & networking

The Institute is served by a dedicated 10 Mbps connection which is available

throughout the campus. For Laptop users a secure Wireless LAN is also available in the

campus. Network Security is provided by a robust Firewall as well as a personal

software firewall on each system.

Email

Each student is provided with his or her personal email account, which is good for

lifetime usage. All students are required to check their emails regularly. Misuse of these

emails or sending unsolicited mails or subscribing to junk mail will be monitored and

dealt with strictly.

IILM’s Intranet

Every students is provided with an account of 37 signals software. Students can use it to

access Basecamp (learning management system) which provides complete academic

resources for classes. These may be accessed from http://37signals.com/

Laptops

IILM will select an appropriate laptop for the students. These would be handed over to

the students on a pre-assigned date. Laptops are used extensively in the learning

process at IILM, therefore you would be required to bring them to campus on all

teaching days. The campus is Wi-Fi enabled and ensures constant connectivity. You are

expected to use the service judiciously. Neither IILM nor the manufacturer will be

responsible for any breakage or theft. Warranty is limited to the first year only. Students

however may decide to purchase an additional year's warranty directly from the

manufacturer. Assistance in logging complains with the service center or resolving level

one troubleshooting may be channelled through a designated technician available on

campus certain days of the week. Absolutely no software related help can be provided

with respect to self installed or manipulated software. It is each student's responsibility

to safeguard their laptops against viruses, spyware and other malware. Students will get a preloaded Operation System from IILM on their respective laptops. IILM wont be responsiblefor any damage to the operating system after handing over the laptop to the students. If any other operating system is installed by the student on his/her laptop then IILM wont be responsible for that operating system. IILM may take action against students found doing unauthorized downloads or misusing bandwidth in any unproductive or undesired manner. The Mac Id of such a student will be blocked for 2 weeks.
