- Abstract
The number of universities in Pakistan has grown in recent years. They are well equipped and have relatively large networks. They are offering information technology courses, so it is necessary for them to equip themselves with new technology to compete in the market. These universities are also using different online systems such as a digital library, online fee submission, online attendance records, and also have fast internet connections. Teachers and students in these universities store important data on the university's network including personal information, research data, student assignments, and test results. Thus, the importance of Network security in universities can be well understood. Network administrators of universities should be aware of various threats to their networks since their networks are connected to the internet which is the main source for incoming viruses and other threats for data on the network. The paper discusses the impact of users on the university's network and the relationship among users and network security in universities of Pakistan.
