# Security Awareness Training | ITS

## Security Awareness Training

**Help protect yourself and the Manhattan University community from phishing, social engineering and other cybersecurity threats.**

Manhattan Universityâ&#128;&#153;s Security Awareness Training program is powered by Arctic Wolf. The program provides short, practical training designed to help students, faculty and staff recognize common security threats, respond appropriately and build safer online habits.

## What to Expect

Security Awareness Training is delivered through emailed links from Arctic Wolf and includes:

- **Quick Start module:** An introductory module that explains the Managed Awareness program and the security topics covered.
- **Short training modules:** Two- to three-minute lessons covering topics such as phishing, social engineering and ways to avoid common cybersecurity threats.
- **Phishing simulations:** Practice exercises designed to help members of the University community identify and report suspicious emails.
- **Brief quizzes:** Short knowledge checks that help reinforce security awareness and safe online practices.

## Training Emails

Communications from Arctic Wolf will be sent from <awareness@arcticwolfawareness.com>.

Because each training link is assigned to an individual user, you should always complete training using the link sent directly to your University email account.
