Lets Go Phishing 13
Limit what you share online The less you share about yourself, the smaller the target you are for a phishing attack. Cybercriminals use information you post online to learn how to gain your trust. 14
Protect your credentials No legitimate company or organization will ask for your username and password or other personal information via e-mail. • SIUC definitely won't. • Still not sure if the e-mail is a phish? Contact the SalukiTech Helpdesk. 15
Attachments Beware of E-mail attachments are the most common vector for malicious software. • When you get a message with an attachment, delete it — unless you are expecting it and are absolutely certain it is legitimate. 16
Confirm Identities Phishing messages can look official. • Cybercriminals steal organization and company identities, including logos and URLs that are close to the links they're trying to imitate. • There's nothing to stop them from impersonating schools, financial institutions, retailers, and a wide range of other service providers. 17
Trust your instincts Do not reply using information in a suspicious message that claims to be from an agency or service provider. • Use your browser to manually locate the organization online. • Contact them via their website, e-mail, or telephone number. 18
Check the sender Check the sender's e-mail address. • Any correspondence from an organization should come from an organizational e-mail address. • A notice from your college or the University is unlikely to come from [email protected]. 19
Take your time If a message states that you must act immediately or lose access, do not comply. • Phishing attempts frequently threaten a loss of service unless you do something. • Cybercriminals want you to react without thinking; an urgent call to action makes you more likely to cooperate. 20
suspicious messages Don't click links in If you don't trust the e-mail (or text message), don't trust the links in it either. • Beware of links that are hidden by URL shorteners or text like "Click Here." • They may link to a phishing site or a form designed to steal your username and password. 21
E-mail attachments Do not open unexpected attachments! • Attachments are cybercriminals’ #1 choice for spreading malicious software… 22
Hover to discover Avoid getting phished — no hook for you! • Mouse over links in e-mail to reveal their true URL. 23
Trust your instincts Does that e-mail feel off? It probably is. • Contact the sender to confirm it's legit. 24
Is it urgent? Cybercriminals want you to do what you're told, when you're told. • Slow down. • Think before you click. 25
Manage social media carefully Posting personal info online creates bait for scams and #phishing. 26
#Phishing is social engineering and it's Remember not just for e-mail! You can get phished by phone or text message. 27
