Use the Report Button: Your Role in Keeping Dartmouth Secure

Body

Phishing emails are one of the most common entry points for cyberattacks — and your inbox is on the front line. When you receive a suspicious message, deleting it isn't enough. Using the Report Phishing button in your email application is a critical step in protecting not just yourself, but Dartmouth as well. If your email application does not have a Report Phishing button forward the email to phishing@dartmouth.edu.

Reporting suspicious emails alerts your security team, helps improve filtering systems, and creates a record of active threats. It takes seconds and could prevent a serious breach.

If you're unsure whether an email is legitimate, err on the side of caution — report it. No security team has ever been upset about a false alarm. They have, however, had to deal with the fallout of threats that went unreported.

See something suspicious? Report it. Every click counts.
