September 2019 Cyber Security Awareness Newsletter:

Cybercrime is something that impacts everyone, both professionally and personally. At work, a data breach could permanently damage an organization’s reputation and result in lawsuits and fines. On an individual level, when our sensitive info ends up in the wrong hands, it could lead to identify theft and additional cyber-attacks. This month’s newsletter identifies how data breaches happen, their impact on us personally, and what we can do to prevent cybercrime at work, at home, and on the go.

Scavenger Hunt Questions (and Answers):

  1.  The massive Yahoo! data breach was made possible by this cyber-attack. (spear phishing)
  2.  What is the root cause of almost every breach? (human error)
  3.  In vishing attacks, cybercriminals can spoof this to appear legitimate. (caller ID)
  4.  To prevent mobile cybercrime, you should treat your smart device like a _____. (computer)
  5.  Preventing cybercrime starts with common sense and ends with always following these. (policies)
