[Eril-l] APS IP Block solutions?

[Alice Daugherty]

Hello all,

In the past we have had the occasional IP block from ACS with the IP unfortunately being our EZProxy IP.  Lately, this has been a recurring issue, and not always the same user.

Recently, one person brought their computer to our IT people and no viruses were found.  We were thinking that a keystroke virus might have been the culprit.  Currently, a different user is causing our IP block and has caused the last 3 blocks.

This year, it seems that the excessive downloads block has occurred more frequently and with other vendors as well.

I wondered how other campuses are handing this issue?  How many attempts at password changes do you provide users before you consider taking away their access?  Do you ever consider restricting their access?  Are there other technologies that can be put in place to prevent these types of breaches?

Thank you,
Alice
