INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY

social-media

Social media is a powerful tool for connection, collaboration, and outreach, but it also exposes personal and institutional information that cybercriminals may exploit. Oversharing can give attackers the details they need to launch phishing attacks, impersonation scams, or identity theft. By managing privacy settings carefully and thinking critically about what we post, the campus community can enjoy the benefits of social media while protecting academic, research, and healthcare interests.

Best Practices

  • Review and adjust privacy settings regularly.
  • Avoid sharing sensitive information online.
  • Think carefully before posting content that could be exploited.
