Cybersecurity Awareness Training notifications

Cybersecurity Awareness Training Update Cybersecurity Awareness Training is required by state statute for all K-State employees every year.

This year we purchased cybersecurity training from the SANS Institute, a cooperative research and education organization. The training is hosted in Canvas and includes a Qualtrics survey.

Thank you to the more than 6,400 K-Staters who have already completed the Cybersecurity Awareness Training. The deadline to complete the training has been extended to Thursday, December 31. When the deadline was extended in Canvas, you received a notification about the new due date for those who selected to receive Canvas notifications. Notifications are a default setting in Canvas and need to be disabled if you would not like to receive notifications.

If you have already completed the training, please disregard the Canvas notification. Keep in mind that the training is mandatory and must be completed by Thursday, December 31.

Thank you to everyone who has provided feedback about the Cybersecurity Awareness training. IT is working with the vendor on a new process for next year, and we hope to implement as many suggestions as possible.
