Information Security - It's Everybody's Responsibility

Securing information is the responsibility of every department and individual on campus. No one can assume that anti-virus software, firewalls and data encryption can provide the protection needed to secure all data that resides on personal workstations, in file cabinets, or on desks, printers and copiers. Information security and protecting confidential information and campus resources is everyone's responsibility. This site is dedicated to helping the campus community be more security conscious, cautious and conscientious.

What is your Phishing IQ?

We all receive them – those e-mails in your inbox that appear to be from your bank or favorite commercial vendor. They look legitimate, but are they really… These phishing e-mails entice you to click on a link in the e-mail and go to the phishing website, where they hope to acquire your accounting, financial, credit card or identity information. How can you tell if that e-mail from your bank is legitimate or a phish? Test your ability to distinguish the real from the fake by taking this brief Phishing IQ Test.
