🔒 Cybersecurity Awareness Month: Week 2 — Strengthen your Defences

Protecting your accounts starts with strong authentication. This week, take a step toward better security by setting up a passkey on your UNB account.

MFA is an important first step, but passkeys provide even stronger protection against phishing attacks—and they’re easy to use.

M365 Highlight of the Week: Set a Timer in MS Forms

Need to keep a quiz or form on track? Add a timer in MS Forms so participants can see how much time they have left. When time runs out, responses are submitted automatically—no delays, no missing responses.

Why it's useful:
✅ Keeps quizzes fair and consistent
✅ Shows exactly how much time is left
✅ Automatically submits responses when time runs out

🔒 Cybersecurity Awareness Month: Week 1 — Think Before You Click

Phishing emails can look like they come from trusted colleagues and may use familiar language to gain your trust. Before you click, take a moment to make sure the message is legitimate.

A few things to watch for:

▪Check the sender's email address—even if you recognize the name
▪Be cautious of unexpected links or attachments—especially if the message asks you to sign in or provide information
▪Watch for signs of suspicious emails—if something seems off, confirm it through another method like Microsoft Teams
▪Pause before you click—take a moment to consider whether the message is expected and makes sense
