October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month and to celebrate, the UT System Administration Information Security Office is holding its first annual Phishing Tournament.

  • Each week one or more phishing lures will be delivered to UT System Administration email inboxes.
  • Spot the phishing email and report it to abuse@utsystem.edu or click the Phish Alert button in the Outlook toolbar.
  • The department with the highest reporting rate at the end of the month will win a prize.

The tournament opens October 5th and goes through October 31st.

To build your phishing detection skills, take one of the 5-minute training courses available in The Learning Zone. Login and do a search for "Cofense."

The Phishing Awareness Program is designed to help raise awareness of the threats posed by phishing emails. Contact bmendivil@utsystem.edu for information on phishing simulations at UT System Administration or visit the ISO Sharepoint site.
