Cyber security
Cyber security is a high priority for the University, to keep both you and our information secure. Getting the right technology in place to help with this is essential; however our behaviour and actions are just as important. A recent study by IBM revealed that 95% of all cyber security incidents involved human error.
Phishing awareness training
To help yourself stay safe online, we strongly encourage you to complete our phishing awareness training. The online course provides an introduction to 'phishing' scams together with practical actions you can take to protect yourself. A knowledge test is included at the end, and the module takes about 15 minutes to finish.
2-factor authentication from Duo
2-factor authentication is an extra layer of IT security which requires you to verify your identity when you log in to some University services. The University’s 2-factor authentication service is provided by Duo.
