UK_CYBERCON brings together campus community, experts from across the U.S. to discuss cybersecurity

Cybersecurity is one of the fastest-growing fields in information technology. It also matters to anyone who shops, banks, studies or works online. That’s why University of Kentucky Information Technology Services (UK ITS) hosts UK_CYBERCON, a free annual conference that brings together experts, students and researchers to help the campus community and the public learn about career opportunities, participate in cybersecurity discussions and learn about safety and security online.

How using a password manager saves time and keeps your personal data secure

When thinking about all your online accounts, do you know how many of those have payment information stored or contain sensitive information like a summary from a doctor’s visit? Using online accounts allows us to pay bills, transfer money and even schedule upcoming medical appointments quickly and easily.  

Why you should be using multifactor authentication for all your online accounts

Multi-factor authentication is a quick and simple way to add an extra layer of protection to confidential data. This additional step acts like an extra lock designed to protect accounts from hackers or a cybersecurity weakness. In some cases, MFA might require biometric verification like a fingerprint or facial scan.
