Cybersecurity Awareness Training

We all play a critical role in protecting the privacy of data.

Malicious actors are continually probing for weaknesses in our defenses.

Common methods for unauthorized access into our systems are via phishing e-mails, targeting accounts with insecure, reused passwords, and unsecured file storage and devices. Due to the frequency and severity of these attacks, both regulators and cyber liability insurers have mandated that organizations must provide cybersecurity awareness training.

Starting on April 2023, Cornell IT required all current staff to complete this training by June 2023.  All new staff should receive an e-mail in the first two weeks of employment with the link to complete this course.  If you do not receive an e-mail notification nor see this training listed when you log into CULearn, please contact the Western IT helpdesk.
