We have received reports of a couple of new phishing emails:
Do not click on links in these messages. Do not provide information or follow links sent to you in emails, especially when they warn you of losing access to an account if you fail to do so. This is almost always a ploy from a malicious sender to get personal information or login credentials.
UofT in general and University of Toronto libraries in particular will not send links asking you to log into a site. You should always navigate to services using web addresses you know rather than ones provided in an email.
Now that a large number of University members access on-campus desktops via remote viewing tools, thought should be given to scenarios where a recovery from a power outage is required.
Construction and building maintenance can result in scheduled and unscheduled disruptions to power.
At a minimum, steps should be taken to configure essential systems to power on automatically and avoid the need for on-site visits. See our article about configuring Dell computers to restart after a power outage for more details.
Until further notice, the Help Desk will be providing support via telephone or online only. There will be no walk-in support at this time.
