IT and Digital Digest - April 2026

April's issue of the IT and Digital Digest is now available, bringing you news, updates, event and opportunities from across the digital and information services.

Alongside our regular project updates and offerings from our service teams, headline items include:

  • enhanced training data reports to help management teams with monitoring mandatory training
  • information about AI-enabled phishing scams currently targeting universities
  • an important reminder from the Telephony Project that all Chorus phone lines must be retired by July. 

You can also read about the launch of the University's redeveloped website and ongoing moves to OxIntranet, and the ongoing transition to more agile delivery in our IT Services teams and digital portfolios, including initial case studies of what this looks like in practice.
