🔥 October is Fire Prevention Month!

Each year, thousands of college students are impacted by campus fires, and the sobering reality is that the vast majority are entirely preventable. That's the heart of Fire Prevention Month: empowering our community with the knowledge and awareness to keep everyone safe.

Please take a moment to review our Fire Prevention and Safety flyer below. Your safety, and the safety of every member of our campus family, is our top priority.

Heads up Owls, some of ya'll might have received an offer for a grant. Don't fall for the classic blunder, it's a phish!

TLDR: If you get an odd email, report it to ET&S or Campus Safety!

There are often clues hidden in a phishing message that you can use to determine if a message you have received is a phishing message including:

The message creates a sense of urgency meant to inspire a quick user response, generally by indicating the user needs to take action immediately in order to:
Avoid a negative consequence like having email access shut off
Get a positive benefit like a financial incentive
See or learn something exciting or forbidden
Most phishing messages include at least two of the following telltale phishing features:
Lists a sender that differs from the email address it is sent from
Claims to be from a legitimate company but come from an email address that is not linked to that company (i.e. claims to be from DHL but comes from a Gmail account)
Has no branding of any kind (USNH or other company Logo, email signature, etc.)
Includes references to USNH departments or services that do not exist
Uses unusual words, syntax, or phrasing; contains simple spelling and grammar mistakes
Includes direct links to login pages
Includes an attachment with a generic name

Report it!
Use the 'Report Message' drop-down menu in Outlook to Report an email as Phishing to our Cybersecurity Team
Forward it to [email protected] and then delete the message; or
Call 603-358-2525

As always, call us if you need us.
