Welcome to Cybersecurity Awareness Month

For over 20 years, October has been recognized as Cybersecurity Awareness Month. This year, our theme is "It's All Fun and Games Until It's Not!". We will present different games to teach our campus community about areas of concern regarding cybersecurity.

We start with a Cybersecurity Scavenger Hunt. You can win UTHSC swag or a Starbucks gift card for finding clues and answers to cybersecurity questions. These giveaways will happen at the end of the month. The hunt begins here!

Look for daily digest posts throughout the month. Play Wordle games each Tuesday and Thursday to learn cybersecurity terms. Each Wednesday will have a link to a different online cybersecurity game. As always, Friday will be a Tip of the Week to keep you and your family safe online. If you miss a post, head to our Cybersecurity Awareness webpage forthe fun (and education).

And as it is Tuesday, here is your first Wordle game of the month. To play, go to https://mywordle.strivemath.com/?word=lvzvs. To give you a hint, fill in this blank - "Be cautious of emails that attempt to_____ for your personal information by trying to look legitimate."
