Great advice from @USF_IT
Some presents aren’t worth opening. That surprise gift card could cost you thousands of dollars in identity theft, compromised bank accounts or computer viruses.
If it seems too good be to true, it probably is. Report suspicious emails directly in Outlook by clicking "Report."

Happy Halloween from all of us at USF IT
Wishing all our Bulls a safe and fun Halloween! We're fresh out of candy, but remember that IT is here to give you technology treats all year long. Oh, and one more thing....if you get an email that looks haunted... DON'T OPEN IT. 👻🕸️🎃💀 #USF
What a fantastic endorsement of the work the Analytics team @USF_IT has been doing.. Love that our students get this experience in a real world team !!

Great advice from our @USF_IT security team !!
Remembering dozens of passwords is hard for all of us! Consider organizing your long list of online accounts with a password manager. It stores your logins in a safe, encrypted database and also generates new passwords for you when needed. #BeCyberSmart tinyurl.com/55r3kab5

Timely tip for everyone !!
No matter how strong your password is, a breach is always possible. Don’t get hacked – enable multi-factor authentication to make sure the only person who has access to your account is you. Visit aka.ms/MFAsetup to get started. #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth
