Is my email or document shared publicly with everyone when the UND-Public label is applied?
No. Applying any sensitivity label does not automatically grant access to anyone. It only limits how the content can be shared based on the label’s recipient restrictions.
Why are the UND sensitivity labels showing up on my personal computing devices?
When you use your University account on your personal phone or computer, the University's rules will apply when opening MS Office files. Those labels are there to help keep university information safe, even if the device is personally owned.
How Do I Open a PDF That Is Protected with Sensitivity Labels?
The method and experience for opening a PDF will vary depending on several factors:

-
UND Recipient - You will be required to authenticate with your username and passphrase.
-
External Recipient - You may be required to authenticate with your username and passphrase or enter a one-time passcode.
