CyberSecurity Awareness Month Continues
October is National CyberSecurity Awaareness Month (NCSAM) and throughout the month, ITS Security will be providing tips and tricks for staying safe online. This week's topic is protecting your account with Duo Account Security. Cybercriminals have increasingly shiffted from targeting computer systems to launching sophisticated phishing attacks against individual accounts. Duo offers a method for you to protect your account by requiring a secondary factor of authentification in addition to your password. Duo is convenient because it allows you to leverage your phone and mobile devices as the second factor. Further information regarding Duo can be found HERE
