Security Awareness Training with KnowBe4

Olin College has partnered with KnowBe4 (https://www.knowbe4.com/) to provide security awarness training, simulated email phishing testing, and phishing email reporting.

Simuated Phishing Emails

Students and employees will receive periodic simulated phishing emails. When you receive a phishing email, whether you believe it to be simulated or hostile, please report it using the Phishing Alert Button in Outlook. If you click on a simulated phishing email, you will see a helpful reminder message. If you regularly click on simulated phishing emails, you may be enrolled in additional security awarness training modules.
