Since capturing its first CCAA national championship in 1991, no other institution in the nation has been as successful in varsity athletics as Humber College. Humber is home to 57 national titles, the most in the country. 

On Tuesday, October 18, 2022 at 6 p.m., as part of our Transfer Student Week celebrations, the Athletic Department will be hosting a group of transfer, pathway, and mature students as our Humber Hawks volleyball teams take on the Durham College Lords.

We’re inviting you, our faculty and staff, to take part as we cheer our volleyball teams to victory. Being part of Hawk Nation is second to none, and you don’t want to miss it.

Phishing poses a serious threat to the Humber community and can impact both the institution as well as our community members personally. It is because of this risk that we are reaching out to our student community to ensure that they remain aware of emails which may appear suspicious. 

What is Phishing? 

Phishing is a form of social engineering, whereby cybercriminals send emails purporting to be from reputable companies or individuals and is the most common form of social engineering used today.  

For more information check out this article on the forms of phishing. 

What is Social Engineering? 

Social engineering is the art of manipulating people to gain access to private information, access to systems, or valuables. When reviewing emails in your Humber student mailbox, please be vigilant as it may be a phishing attempt. To help assist you in identifying suspicious emails, here are some additional resources to educate you about phishing.

In our efforts to further protect our community from this type of fraudulent and harmful activity, Humber ITS is providing optional Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to all Humber students when accessing Microsoft 365 products. We are encouraging students to be early adopters and enroll for MFA throughout #CyberMonth2022. Cybersecurity threats are becoming increasingly complex, and MFA will help protect your student account by adding an extra verification step that ensures they are who they say they are when they log in. This helps prevent hackers from gaining unauthorized access to our student accounts even if they are able to compromise a student’s password.  

If you have any questions, contact the I.T. Support Centre at 416.675.6622 x8888 or humber.ca/techtalk.
