WSU employees getting additional email security

Starting Monday, Wichita State employee emails will have added protections to guard against phishing scams. Any email from outside of the WSU email system will have a yellow bar displayed at the top of an email warning users.

This measure is being taken due to increased phishing attempts, according to the university.

Student emails will not have this warning at this time.
