Recent ITS Security Incident |
|
During the current academic year, ITS responded to a major security incident involving a malware-compromised university laptop. We believe it's important to share with the W&L community some of the details associated with the event. A summary can be found in the following Box link. |
Students, faculty and staff are frequent targets of cybercriminals seeking to disrupt and seize W&L data and assets. Routine daily activities, like clicking on search engine results, can escalate into a cascading series of damaging events. Increased awareness of the cyber threats we face empowers us all to better safeguard against the effects of cybercrime. |
If you have any questions about this notice, please contact the ITS Helpdesk at X4357 or help@wlu.edu. |
