Warnung vor CEO Fraud
Aktuell sind HCU-Angehörige von CEO-Fraud betroffen und erhalten unten stehende E-Mail. In einer aus der Domain gmail.com stammenden E-Mail werden HCU-Angehörige vorgeblich von der Direktorin des City Science Labs um Kontaktierung gebeten. Im Verlauf einer typischen CEO-Fraud-Konversation fordern die Scammer ein Opfer oft zu einer Überweisung oder zum Kauf von Vouchern, bspw. für den Google Playstore, auf. Bitte antworten Sie nicht auf diese E-Mail!
We launched the new version of the HCU information security website!
Our new site is visually more appealing, features an improved navigation and way more information all about information security at HCU.
As usual the content is available in both German and English. While all website texts are already translated you may find that some documents are only available in German or English, their translations will follow over the next few months.
More updates will follow!
Caught a phishing mail?
You got a phishing mail that isn’t listed below?
Several phishing attacks reach the HCU, some targeted and some more widespread. If a specific phishing mail is occurring more often, we can warn about it on our website and via the mailing list.
If you receive a phishing e-mail, you can send it to us and we’ll take the appropriate next steps. Just forwarding the mail is not sufficient since some important details go missing this way. Below this text you can find a PDF where the safe way to send phishing mails is described in detail.
