Are you part of the 10%?
That's the percentage of faculty, staff, and students who clicked-through on a suspicious link in our Spring phishing training. Next time, don't take the bait - Report the Phish!

Phishing is when cyber criminals send official-looking emails, attempting to fool you into disclosing your personal information or infecting your device with malware or ransomware. The Report Phishing button makes it easy for you to report any suspicious emails sent to your inbox. Even if you are not sure, it is better to report it and have the message checked for safety first.
In addition, just because you may easily identify a phishing attempt, you should still report it rather than delete it. What might be obvious to you may not be to another individual, and reporting the phish will allow us to remove it from everyone's Villanova email inbox before someone takes the bait.
Simple tips to avoid phishing attacks:
- Think before you click
- Be Skeptical of unsolicited outreach
- When in doubt, Report the Phish
