Will tech department go through my email I tried to access my school email history and then logged on and off a few times. Will this raise suspicions?

Answer 1

Your activity will have left an 'audit trail' on whichever computer you were using. The tech department will know when (and how many times) you logged onto their machine(s). If you've done nothing illegal - chances are, you'll escape with a written warning. It depends on the policy of the company you work for.

Answer 2

Was there anything to raise suspicions of it being a hacking attempt such as a series of denied logins due to typing in the password incorrectly? If not, then chances are that it would not come up on their "radar" unless you bring it to their attention. Considering how much work the IT Departments of most schools have to do, this is something that they don't typically investigate unless the affected user requests assistance or alerts IT staff to an unauthorized access event. The same is true for online banking, internet shopping accounts (such as at Amazon), and so forth. I would say that you should not worry about it unless there was another red flag that got raised (such as logging in with geographically diverse IP addresses: for example, one login came from Seattle, another came from New York, and then a third from Lugansk).
