Learning and Information Technology (LIT) continues to work hard to secure personal information and the identity of students, faculty and staff. We all play an important role in IT security.
- Never share your password.
- Do not use one password for everything. Consider using a complex password for online banking different than the one used for email and social media.
- Avoid sharing too much personal information on social media sites.
- Never reply to any email asking you to click a link to confirm or reset your password. This is a “phishing” scam. UW-Stout will never ask this nor would any reputable financial institution.
