October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and while hackers try to trick us all the time, we’re here with some treats for the Denison community:
Keep your account safe with two-factor authentication!
- Over the last year, 37 individuals have had a suspicious login on their Denison account, which typically indicates that their password has been compromised by a malicious actor. Google helps us detect those events after they’ve occurred, and two-factor authentication (2FA) goes one step further by protecting your account during login.
- Two-factor authentication is now available for your Denison account via our partnership with Duo – Enroll in Duo today to keep hackers from accessing your email and Google Drive files!
Bring your cybersecurity questions to the upcoming cybersecurity workshop for faculty and staff.
- Visit us on October 25th from 1:30 to 2:30 PM in Talbot 212. Please RSVP.
How many times has your personal information been exposed to hackers?
- This tool from the New York Times will help you determine your minimum level of exposure.
Cybersecurity awareness training for employees.
- Remember you can access our cybersecurity training resources at https://training.knowbe4.com
Google will start reminding us to stay alert by marking HTTP websites with forms as “Not Secure” in the Chrome browser.
- Look for this change in an October update of Google Chrome.
