School of Medicine Data Security Compliance Frequently Asked Questions

Who is required to complete attestation?

All School of Medicine affiliates, including those with a Full (sponsored) SUNet ID, will complete their attestation in MyDevices.

How often do I need to update my attestation?

You are required to update your Data and Device Attestation whenever your role changes and on a yearly basis. If you attest that yes, you work with, have access to, or may receive High Risk Data, then you also need to update your attestation whenever your device inventory changes.

I attested "No." Do I have to do anything else?

Ensure your answer is based on whether you access High Risk Data anywhere in your role, even if you do not access it on the specific device you are currently using. If you attest "No" and submit your attestation, you’re done.

I attested "Yes." What does that mean for my devices?

If you attest "Yes," you will need to list each device you use for any Stanford work (including email) and say whether each laptop or desktop is Stanford-owned or personal. Then submit.

Why are there more devices displayed in MyDevices than in AMIE for School of Medicine users?

AMIE does not display devices that have not reported into BigFix for over 90 days. MyDevices will continue to display devices until they are removed from MyDevices. If a device is still being displayed in MyDevices but is no longer being used, please select the Remove Device button for that device on the MyDevices Home screen to remove the device.

How is a device removed from my MyDevices Home screen?

There are several ways a device can be removed from MyDevices. One or more of the following actions may have occurred to remove a device:

  • Select the Remove Device button on the MyDevices Home screen.
  • Uninstall the management or monitoring system (BigFix, Jamf, Intune, or VLRE) from the device.
  • Disable the associated NetDB record.
  • The device may be automatically removed if the device has not reported in MyDevices for more than 455 days.
