Week 02 - Cybersecurity in the Workplace is Everyone's Business

This week focuses on how to secure yourself at work

Learn about:

  • CEO Fraud
  • How to recognise a Phishing email
  • Targeted attacks

Cyber security IS an issue at Royal Roads.  Consider the following:

  • RRU rejects, on average, approximately 28,000 SPAM / Malware emails per day, with about 450 making it to our 3rd level filters.
  • Our remote access server gets over 20,000 failed logon attempts per day

This week we will provide you with some great information on how you can be more secure at work.  Check back through the week as we will be posting resources all week long.

Want to know more about cybersecurity in the workplace?  The Security Awareness team has a series of short seminars that they will present to your team in your office.  Email securityawareness@royalroads.ca for more information.
