What steps can you take to protect yourself and others?

Be wary of unsolicited attachments, even from people you know. Just because an email message or IM looks like it came from your mom, friend or boss doesn't mean that it did. Many viruses can "spoof" the return address, making it look like the message came from someone else (for example, joe@caci.com). If you can, check with the person who supposedly sent the message to make sure it's legitimate before opening any attachments. When in doubt, err on the side of caution and do not open the attachment.

CACI employees are again key allies in the protection of the CACI network and our resources. If you have additional questions contact the Technical Assistance Center, 703-679-3200, cistac@caci.com.
