It’s that time of year again! October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month (NCSAM), an annual collaborative effort between government and industry to help you maintain your security online. Throughout the month, ITS will be sending you tips on protecting your information and avoiding malicious attempts to extract your personal data.
Pop quiz! Can you tell what’s real?
Since last year’s NCSAM, AI-generated content has gotten even more convincing. It might be tempting to just write off everything as AI slop, but knowing the facts helps you from getting scammed and also keeps you in the know of what’s really going on in the world. Take our quiz to see if you can tell what’s real.
What’s in store for NCSAM this month
