Best
Viewed in 1024x768 with Internet Explorer (IE)
While the
previous Intranet is best viewed in the display resolution of
800x600 pixels, it is now 1024x768 for the new Intranet. If
your display has not been adjusted to 1024x768, you may see
annoying scroll bars on the Intranet Home Page. Furthermore,
the visual effect of the Intranet Home Page looks best with
IE. If you are still using Netscape as your default browser,
you will have a very different experience when viewing the Intranet
using IE.
Secure
Connection to the CityU Intranet from off-campus
To provide
an utmost secure connection, the CityU Web server has been upgraded
to 128-bit encryption. To be able to benefit from this maximum
protection, it is important that your browser supports 128-bit
encryption. Otherwise, you may not be able to connect to the
Intranet. For details, please visit, http://www.cityu.edu.hk/intranet/ssl/128bit.htm
An encrypted
SSL connection requires all information sent between the client
and server to be encrypted, protecting private information from
interception over the Internet. In addition, all data sent over
an encrypted SSL connection is protected by a mechanism for
detecting tampering - that is, for determining automatically
whether the data has been altered in transit.
Using a
SSL connection, one can confidently send private data, such
as password, credit card numbers to the CityU Intranet without
any security concerns.
