Phishing emails can be very tricky to spot amongst the mountains of email in our inboxes, and the recent phishing simulation test in October is proof that it can be difficult to discern the suspicious emails from the safe ones. Using the email from the simulation test, and a few other examples, you will learn the rules of thumb to quickly determine which emails need some scrutiny before you act on them. Techniques for safely checking out an email in multiple browsers and devices will be discussed.
Session 53: Oops! Should I have emailed that? Sensitive Data and How to Handle it Securely

If you have to ask yourself the question in the session title, the answer is probably no, but how exactly are you supposed to secure and transport certain kinds of data? And which kinds of data need extra protection? SUNY Oswego is obligated by law to treat certain kinds of data more securely than others, and it’s important to learn how. In this session, you will learn about the different categories of data sensitivity at SUNY Oswego, and what not to do with certain types. Some important general principles for handling data are covered, as well as some specific guidelines and actions that can immediately be put to everyday use.
