| When travelling to high-risk countries, please be aware of a few conditions. The risk of being wiretapped or your electronics being infected with malware rises when you are travelling to some areas with higher security risks.

| The Norwegian Police Security Service (Norwegian: Politiets sikkerhetstjeneste, PST) has singled out some countries with the most vulnerable cyber security. These countries are often referred to as “high-risk countries”. Among the high-risk countries in 2018 were Russia, China, Iran, North Korea and Pakistan.

| When travelling to high-risk countries, it is advisable to follow the [[Travelling_with_a_UiB-computer|general advice on cyber security while travelling]], and additional safety measures must be taken:
| |
| | |
| *When travelling to high-risk countries, '''do not take with you the electronics you use privately, but rather use electronics meant just for the trip''' (laptops, mobile phones, etc.) that you can borrow from the IT department (see the Loan Equipment service for high-risk country travels in the [https://tk.app.uib.no/node/429 Service Catalogue for IT-services] – <u>NB:</u> page in Norwegian).
| |
| *Most of the [[Travelling_with_a_UiB-computer|general advice on cyber security while travelling]] applies to your trip also if you are travelling to high-risk countries.
| |
| *Information on how to use the electronic devices provided by the IT department will be given to you when receiving the borrowed devices.
| |
| | |
| Upon returning, it is important to remember two things:
| |
| * Do not connect the travel equipment to the UiB network. Instead, return the equipment to the IT department to receive help in transferring the data safely from the travel equipment to UiBs systems (if there is a need for that).
| |
| * It is of utmost importance to change the passwords you have been using while travelling. When changing the password, remember to use a different machine than the one you had on your travels.
