Zika Virus Information
by UM Student E-Mail Accounts 03 Feb '16

03 Feb '16

[cid:image001.jpg@01CEC4DE.C0FA5C60] The University of Manitoba is closely monitoring advisories from Manitoba Health, Healthy Living and Seniors (MHHLS), the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) regarding the Zika virus outbreak in countries of the Caribbean, Central America, and South America. As members of our university community travel to these countries, this message is being provided to inform you of some potential risks associated with the Zika virus and steps you can take to reduce the risk. At the current time, WHO, PHAC, and MHHLS advise that: * There should be no restrictions on travel or trade with countries, areas and/or territories with Zika virus transmission, * Travellers to areas with Zika virus transmission should be provided with up to date advice on potential risks and appropriate measures to reduce the possibility of exposure to mosquito bites, * It is recommended that pregnant women and those considering becoming pregnant discuss their travel plans with their health care provider to assess their risk and consider postponing travel to areas where the Zika virus is circulating in the Americas. If travel cannot be postponed, then strict mosquito bite prevention measures should be followed to protect themselves against bites. What is it? The Zika virus is transmitted by a mosquito bite from infected Aedes mosquitoes, which are distributed widely throughout the tropics and subtropics. They bite during the day and early evening. What are the symptoms? About 80% of affected individuals are asymptomatic. Those who develop symptoms usually develop a mild, self- limiting disease, resolving within 7 days of symptom onset. Symptoms generally appear 3-14 days following a bite from an infected mosquito. Symptoms commonly include: acute onset of low grade fever (38.5C or lower), rash, joint pains, conjunctivitis. Less common symptoms have included muscle aches, weakness, lethargy and headaches. There is a speculative association between the Zika virus and birth defects. There is evidence to suggest that pregnant women are either more susceptible or develop more severe presentations. What is the treatment? There is no vaccine or specific treatment for the Zika virus infection. How can I reduce the chances of Zika virus infection? Prevention is key. Travelers to outbreak regions should use appropriate mosquito repellants, such as those containing DEET or Icaridin, wear protective clothing, and use bed nets. Every effort should be made to keep mosquitoes out of living areas by ensuring doors are closed, window screens are in good repair and using air conditioning.

FW: Phishng Email Recommendations
by UM Student E-Mail Accounts 06 Aug '15

06 Aug '15

Phishing Email Recommendations There have been increased reports of Phishing emails. We would like to remind you of precautions when it comes to unsolicited email. 1. All unsolicited emails related to your accounts should immediately be suspect. 2. Phishing emails will redirect you to an illegitimate site and prompt you for personal information. 3. You can always check the destination of the link by hovering your mouse pointer over it. 4. Never click a link in an unsolicited email instead visit the organization’s website directly by typing a known address into your browser. 5. The University of Manitoba will not ask for your password or confidential banking information via an email. Some common themes to watch for are: 1. threats of account closure 2. mentions of "upgrades" that require changes to your account 3. "verification" of your account 4. any request for userid, password, financial information 5. request to "click a link" for anything related to email or financial accounts 6. generic wording in the salutation, body or closing signature 7. technical deception to make a link in an email appear to belong to a spoofed organization 8. use of images instead of text in order to evade keyword filters 9. Forging real websites, logos or login pages 10. The targets are often email accounts, online banking, credit cards, PayPal, Amazon, and parcel delivery. If you receive an email that you are uncertain of DO NOT click any links. You can either delete the email or forward the emails as an attachment to Servicedesk(a)umanitoba.ca<mailto:Servicedesk@umanitoba.ca> for review. Please do not hesitate to contact the Service desk if you have any questions.

UM Today Special Edition: Budget 2015-16
by all-students＠lists.umanitoba.ca 14 Nov '14

14 Nov '14

A message from Dr. David Barnard, President and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Manitoba November 14, 2014 http://www.umanitoba.ca/?utm_source=waag&utm_medium=email http://news.umanitoba.ca?utm_source=umtoday&utm_medium=email A message from Dr. David Barnard, President and Vice-Chancellor of the University of Manitoba I am writing to you today about the serious budgetary challenges our University community is facing. Conversations about the budget are not always easy ones to have, but we all need to understand the subject in order to respond appropriately. As more information becomes available, I will share it with you in a timely fashion. Post-secondary institutions in this province and country can no longer sustain their operations within the current funding model. Nationally, universities have been forced in recent years to cut budgets at the expense of essential programs and services. In Manitoba, many years of low provincial grant funding and frozen or controlled tuition rates have resulted in severe stresses on the capacity of our post-secondary institutions to deliver on their mandates. At the University of Manitoba in particular, the financial demands associated with operating our institution have outpaced the growth of our resources. Put bluntly, the funding model in place does not enable the University to fully support the outcomes our students, staff and faculty are capable of achieving for themselves and, ultimately, for the betterment of Manitoba. As we advocate for changes to the model and improved funding, we are at the same time faced with the immediate prospect of balancing the budget under cur rent circumstances. Together we need to find ways to better align our expenses with our revenues while maintaining our commitment to our institutional priorities. This will be the focus of our work as we prepare a balanced budget for 2015/2016.

PHISHING Email Security Notice
by all-students＠lists.umanitoba.ca 07 Nov '14

07 Nov '14

PHISHING Email Security Notice Several students have reported receiving a phishing email sent to their myumanitoba email address. The email has the following features: FROM: myumanitoba.ca <miskander AT aucegypt.edu> SUBJECT: Email Account Update The email claims your account has been suspended because of maintenance, and that you need to click a link to "verify" your account. There is a threat if you don't comply. DO NOT click the link. DELETE the email. The link itself is not dangerous, but it takes you to a fake form. Filling in and submitting the form will give your credentials to the attacker who may then use your account to send spam or attempt some other type of fraud. The University of Manitoba will not send emails threatening account closure if you don't visit a link. How to Spot Phishing Emails As you may be aware, common themes of a classic phishing email to watch for are: - threats of account closure - mentions of "upgrades" that require changes to your account - "verification" of your account - any request for userid, password, financial information - request to "click a link" for anything related to email or financial accounts - generic wording in the salutation, body or closing signature - technical deception to make a link in an email appear to belong to a spoofed organization - use of images instead of text in order to evade keyword filters - forging real websites, logos, login pages, etc... The target is almost always an email account, online banking, credit cards, paypal, Amazon, parcel delivery. Anything of financial value to the attacker or can gain access to an email account that can be used to send spam to other victims, or commit other types of fraud. Never click a link in an email. Visit the organizations website directly by typing a known address into your browser. Be cautious with attachments that are unsolicited. Please do not hesitate to contact the Service desk if you have any questions. Thank you, Service Desk Information Services & Technology University of Manitoba 123 Fletcher Argue 230 Neil John MacLean Library 204-474-8600 Servicedesk(a)umanitoba.ca ************************************************************************************************************* This communication is intended for the use of the recipient to which it is addressed, and may contain confidential, personal and/or privileged information.

[U of M Registrar's Office] You are receiving this email because you are currently registered for Fall 2014 courses at the University of Manitoba. If you will not attend the U of M this term, you must withdraw from your courses before September 17*. *Most students will use Aurora<https://aurora.umanitoba.ca/banprod/twbkwbis.P_GenMenu?name=homepage> to withdraw from courses. If you have any difficulty, please contact your faculty/advising office: Undergraduate<http://umanitoba.ca/student/records/tutorial/academic-advisors.html>, Graduate<http://fgs-webap.cc.umanitoba.ca/contacts/index.php?contact=suppstaff>. Graduate Studies students who are unable to continue studies this term must contact their department<http://fgs-webap.cc.umanitoba.ca/contacts/index.php?contact=suppstaff> regarding a Leave of Absence. Registration revision deadline may differ for irregularly dated courses<http://umanitoba.ca/student/records/fees/irregular_refund_vw_deadlines.html> and Faculty of Law<http://crscalprod1.cc.umanitoba.ca/Catalog/ViewCatalog.aspx?pageid=viewcata…>. ________________________________ To all U of M students, The Fall Term 2014 Registration Revision Period ends September 17, 2014.** The Registration Revision Period can be used to attend classes, test out your classroom experience and determine if you will remain registered in the courses you have selected or if changes should be made. Don't forget to review your fee assessment after making any changes! During the Registration Revision Period, you may: * Add a new class if you changed your mind about your course subjects, or if a course that was previously full is now available * Drop a class and receive a tuition refund * Switch a lecture or lab to a more preferred day/time September 17, 2014** is the last day to make changes to your Fall 2014 or Fall 2014/Winter 2015 spanned course registration. Check your fee assessment after making changes to your registration; any fees resulting from changes are due September 17. **Registration revision deadline may differ for irregularly dated courses<http://umanitoba.ca/student/records/fees/irregular_refund_vw_deadlines.html> and Faculty of Law<http://crscalprod1.cc.umanitoba.ca/Catalog/ViewCatalog.aspx?pageid=viewcata…>. Late Fee Payment: * Students with outstanding fees after the September 10 fee payment deadline have already been assessed late fees. * Students should review their fee assessment after any registration changes made during the Revision Period. * A further $40 late fee will be applied to accounts outstanding after September 17 and students will be placed on Hold. Students on Hold will need faculty/school advising office assistance to withdraw from courses. * All students with unpaid accounts will receive reminder notices by email, mail and phone; all unpaid accounts will eventually be referred to a collections agency. Remember: * Students who do not withdraw from their fall term and fall/winter term spanned courses by September 17** will be required to pay the full tuition and fees for all courses in which they are registered even if they do not attend classes. * Once the Revision Period is over, students are no longer able to add new classes, or to switch the day/time for lectures and labs - you may still Voluntarily Withdraw from a class, but will not receive a tuition refund. * Be cautious of adding a new course too late in the Registration Revision Period - you may have missed a number of classes, and have assignments due right away. If you don't get space in a course within the first few days of the Revision period, late registration may not be a good idea.

Ebola Virus and the University of Manitoba
by all-students＠lists.umanitoba.ca 02 Sep '14

02 Sep '14

[cid:image001.jpg@01CEC4DE.C0FA5C60] The University of Manitoba is closely monitoring advisories from Manitoba Health, Healthy Living and Seniors (MHHLS), the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) regarding the Ebola virus disease outbreak in West Africa. According to PHAC, the risk in Canada is considered very low with no reported cases. The U of M is following guidelines established by MHHLS, PHAC and WHO, and will provide updated information about the Ebola virus to the University community when there is new information that could potentially impact faculty, staff and students. Students, staff and faculty should contact Health Links 24-hour phone line at (204) 788-8200 or toll-free 1-888-315-9257 or visit http://www.wrha.mb.ca/healthinfo/healthlinks/ with any questions or concerns. Current Actions: University Health Service is closely monitoring the situation and will advise the University about appropriate communication needs and possible interventions should they become necessary. * All incoming international students from West Africa are being advised about the outbreak, possible travel complications if coming from impacted countries, symptoms of the Ebola virus, and to seek immediate health care should they become ill after arriving in this country. * A student travel restriction is being issued for the following countries: Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea. This recommendation is consistent with PHAC's Level 3 advisory from August 20, 2014. Revisions to this restriction will be made if PHAC makes changes in their recommendations. * The U of M encourages everyone to become familiar with symptoms and seek medical attention if you or someone you know experiences fever, intense weakness, muscle pain, headache and sore throat. Symptoms can begin 2 to 21 days after exposure, although 8 to 10 days is most common. Ebola is not an airborne virus. Transmission requires direct contact with blood or bodily secretions.

Potential Security Risk, Heartbleed Bug
by all-students＠lists.umanitoba.ca 10 Apr '14

10 Apr '14

Information Services & Technology would like to inform you that earlier this week a serious bug in a common internet tool "OpenSSL" was discovered. This weakness dubbed The Heartbleed Bug, affects a large number of websites and systems on the Internet that use the secure/encrypted SSL protocol for communication (ie. pages that start with https). This tool is most often used when conducting e-commerce or exchanging private or personal information and is used at the University of Manitoba and across the globe. We are pleased to report that no major enterprise wide systems were affected by this vulnerability and that IST has patched, updated or otherwise minimized the risk on the few systems that were found vulnerable. However, we must caution everyone that sites you visit off campus may not be secure. System administrators around the globe are working to fix this issue. We urge you to use caution when using e-commerce sites unless the site has an official statement that they have fixed the issue, and then follow their guidelines. This may include changing the password that you use on those services. Please be extra cautious with unsolicited emails related to your personal or business accounts. Now is the perfect opportunity for an attacker to steal passwords or personal information through malicious web links or attachments. Always visit the account site directly and do not follow links in email that you cannot verify are legitimate. The University of Manitoba is not asking you to change any service passwords at this time. If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Service Desk at 204-474-8600.
