Basic Security Awareness Training

You get an email or text: It seems to be from someone you know, and it asks you to click a link, or give your password, business bank account, or other sensitive information.
It looks real: It’s easy to spoof logos and make up fake email addresses. Scammers use familiar company names or pretend to be someone you know.
It’s urgent: The message pressures you to act now — or something bad will happen.
What happens next: If you click on a link, scammers can install ransomware or other programs that can lock you out of your data and spread to the entire company network. If you share passwords, scammers now have access to all those accounts.
