New Cybersecurity training available Feb. 3

The Division of Information Technology (IT) is launching its latest cybersecurity training course on Feb. 3 as part of our commitment to maintaining a secure digital environment. This annual training is a vital component of the university’s Secure Access initiative and is mandatory for all faculty, staff and student employees through the State of Kansas ITEC Policy 7230 – Information Technology Enterprise Security Policy section 8.0 Awareness and Training Standard.

The invitation to the training will be delivered to your inbox on Feb. 3 from system@listmos.com.

Key details

The training period starts Feb. 3 and ends on March 31. The training must be completed by March 31. Employees who have not completed the training by April 14, 2025, will lose access to university systems until the training is finished.

New features

This year’s training introduces a “test-out” experience designed to streamline the process and make it more efficient. The following are the enhancements to the training:

  • Pre-test option: Users can take a pre-test to demonstrate their cybersecurity knowledge.
  • Targeted training: Based on the pre-test results, the training will tailor the content. You will only need to watch videos for sections where you answered questions incorrectly.

This personalized approach minimizes time spent on material you already understand while ensuring you receive necessary instruction on topics where improvement is needed.
