IT Tip
In the four months of January through April, there's a big uptick in IRS phish email. These emails generally threaten the user about access to a refund, promise a bigger refund or reference one of the tax software programs (like TurboTax). During this period, treat all email about taxes as a potential phish, and avoid clicking on URLs until you can verify its legitimacy. If you have questions about whether an email is legitimate, forward it to the Technical Assistance Center or to itsecurity@radford.edu.
Banner Tip
The Data Extract Option determines which extract options are enabled on the Help menu within Banner INB. The option can be enabled for both key and data blocks, data blocks only, or not enabled. By default, one of the extract options is enabled on most validation forms. MORE>>>
