This year’s Security Awareness training will be released on September 9th, and it has two parts:
(1) A compliance-mandated, interactive video, presented in multiple short segments that may be viewed by segment or all at once – whatever fits your schedule. This 10-15 minute video educates users about cybersecurity threats and how to recognize and avoid them. It also addresses two exciting new topics: the new Phish Alert Button and Artificial Intelligence. Completion of this education will enter you into the drawing for prizes at the end of the fiscal year.
(2) Season 3 of Restricted Intelligence, the light and fun (and still optional) video series. Episode 1 will be released on Oct 1, 2024. A new episode will be released approximately each month.
By completing your Security Awareness Education, you are helping UD reduce the risk of data breaches, malware infections, phishing attempts, and other malicious activities. This knowledge will help you keep your data and UD’s data safe.
If the training is required for you, you will receive an email on September 9th indicating you are enrolled in the 2024-25 Secure UD Training, along with instructions on how to access it.
You will also receive an email notification on October 1st that a new episode of “Restricted Intelligence” is available.
Once you finish any part of the Security Awareness training, a certificate of completion will be available for you to download in your KnowBe4 console.
