Thank you to everyone who participated in our first simulated phishing exercise this week. These simulations are an important way to demonstrate what you’ve learned from October’s Cyber Security Awareness Month and to continue strengthening our everyday security habits.
The simulated phishing campaign running throughout November is designed to provide ongoing opportunities for practice. Each message will look a little different and introduce new challenges, helping everyone build confidence in spotting and reporting suspicious emails.
Next week’s simulated phishing email will be a bit more difficult. Please continue to use the same process to report phishing attempts—don’t click links, open attachments, or forward the message. Instead, use the standard phishing report method, as outlined in the How to Report Phishing PDF shared last week to flag it properly.
Your continued participation shows how seriously we all take our shared responsibility for cyber security. Keep up the great work, and stay alert for next week’s message.
Thank you.
Bert VandeKuyt, Manager of IT Security
