ICC Business Products will schedule cleanings by building. Questions on printer maintenance agreements should be directed to Pam Thompson in Purchasing. |
IT Security----Don't Click an Unknown Link
 Last week we were all advised against replying to email requests for usernames and passwords. It's equally important not to click links in unsolicited email messages. If you receive a random message asking you to click a link, don't do it! If you think the message might be legitimate, manually go to that organization's website instead of clicking a link in an email. If the message came from an address you don't recognize or it looks suspicious, delete it or forward it to the IT Services Help Desk, helpdesk@ipfw.edu. |
