Over Winter Break, ITS announced the availability of a new “Cyber-Security – Phishing 101” online training module – with a quick quiz – to help folks sharpen their email scam detection skills.
To sweeten the pot a little more, anyone taking the quiz before 1/27/16 and earning a score of 80% or above was entered in a drawing for one of five $15 Denison Dollars awards.
More than 200 students, faculty, and staff answered the call, taking the Phishing Quiz by the deadline. The lucky $15 Denison Dollars drawing winners are:
- Bobby Craig, Class of 2018
- Steve Crawford, Alumni Relations
- Tristan Domville, Class of 2018
- Amy Elliott, Doane Library
- Melissa Engleman, Doane Library
Haven’t taken the Phishing Quiz yet?
While the drawing is over, the Phishing Module is still available! If you haven’t had a chance to review the brief presentation and take the quiz, ITS strongly encourages you to do so. We are continuing to see phishing attacks directed at Denison University accounts. When hackers are successful in obtaining account information, they can wreak havoc in your email account.
To get started, look under “My Courses” in Blackboard for the “IT Security” course. Within it you’ll find the announcement and link to the Phishing module.
If you have any email-related questions or concerns, please contact the ITS Help Desk at 740-587-6395 or helpdesk@denison.edu.
