  • 10/30 UConn ITS Donot Share Your Password

    UConn ITS is hosting a special tabling event at Fairfield Way on October 30th—Donut Share Your Password! This event aims to raise awareness about online security, and all students, staff, and faculty are invited to stop by, enhance their cybersecurity skills, and enjoy a sweet treat! 

    Sharing your password—whether by falling for phishing scams or simply sending it to a friend—can lead to cybercriminals accessing your personal information. To help prevent this, UConn ITS will offer hands-on learning experiences, including reviewing sample phishing emails. Participants who engage in these activities will have the chance to win snacks and prizes! 

    This event is a valuable opportunity for the UConn community to learn quick tips on staying secure online. With cybersecurity becoming increasingly important in both personal and professional settings, everyone can benefit from these essential skills. 

    Don’t miss the chance to test your skills, learn from experts, and enjoy some snacks in the process! 

    Stop by the UConn ITS table on Fairfield Way on October 30th, from 10 AM to 12 PM, and take a stand against phishing!
