You may have read news articles about a global ransomware attack. Most College PCs should have this patch downloaded already, but you may need to install it and reboot. See our instructions to check if your Windows PC is patched.
Other tips to stay safe from ransomware:
- Do not click suspicious links in email.
- Do not open shared Google documents or email attachments unless you are expecting them and follow up with the sender when in doubt.
- If you are prompted for a software update while browsing the web, make sure it is legitimately from the source (e.g. Adobe Flash). When in doubt, contact the Help Desk.
