Uh oh! You scanned a malicious QR code!
Luckily, this one was a simulation carried out by the Marist College Cybersecurity Team.
Only scan QR codes you know are valid. Here are some indicators of malicious QR codes:
- Check the source
- A QR code is more likely to be safe if it comes from a reputable source. On the Marist campus, QR codes will typically be on a poster. Confirm that posters have the Student Activities stamp on them.
- Consider the placement
- It is best to proceed cautiously if you find a QR code in an unsolicited email, on a random website, or in a strange public place.
- Look at the destination
- If the QR code directs you to a website, make sure the URL is spelled correctly and begins with "https".
- If you scan a QR code and the URL looks cryptic, or the site is unrelated to what you scanned, close out of your browser.
- Be cautious about giving out personal information
- It is important to know what information is being requested and if it is necessary to provide it. Be wary of entering your Marist credentials if you are not sure why they are needed.
