National Cyber Security Awareness Month
Protect Yourself, Protect Your University
October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month, a global effort to help everyone stay safe and protected when using technology. Here are four easy steps you can take today to secure your online life.
GenAI & Your Security
To mark National Cyber Security Awareness Month this year, we're also sharing tips on how to protect your data — and Rowan’s data —when using generative artificial intelligence (genAI) tools.
Look for our announcements on the Rowan Announcer, on our website and on our Instagram account.
Use Strong Passwords
By creating strong passwords for each of your accounts, you make it harder for someone who isn't you to access your information online.
Enable Two-Factor Authentication
Two-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to your online accounts. At Rowan University, we use Duo two-factor authentication to protect your Rowan NetID.
Update Your Software
Keep software and third-party applications current to reduce risk of infection from ransomware and malware. Follow our security checklist for more tips.
Recognize & Report Phishing
Use our tips for spotting phishing scams. If you receive a suspicious email, check our list of known scams. If a scam isn't listed, report it to support@rowan.edu.
