A phishing attack is an attempt to socially engineer a user into unknowingly giving up sensitive information. This sensitive information can be used to access user account(s), obtain sensitive information, and steal identities. Why does it start with a ph? Check out this article (link: https://www.phishprotection.com/resources/history-of-phishing). Sooo fascinating.
Have you ever noticed how many things we call “Blue-something”? We’re not the most creative. Anyway, DePaul students have several options for accessing their BlueM@il (username@depaul.edu): the Outlook Desktop App, the Outlook Web App, or through an email app on a smartphone or other mobile device. For each app, users must login with their BlueKey login credentials and authenticate with BlueKey multi-factor authentication (MFA).
Check out the getting started guide for your BlueM@il email.
Are you just using one app to check your BlueM@il? Did you know that you can use Outlooks web, desktop, or mobile apps to access your email? There are also other apps and email clients that you can use, but they really don’t work as well with BlueM@il as Outlook. It’s kind of weird to call Apple’s and Android’s email apps a “client”. Seems more like a person than a program. Best not to think about it after this line.
