Always a good security reminder…

Do NOT open unknown or unexpected email attachments. Even if you recognize the email address, be very cautious with the attachment if something does not look right about the email. Even if it is sent from an address you recognize, a hacker may have spoofed a valid address and used it to deliver malicious content or a virus. Look for cues that something is not right, such as random or odd email subject titles, no text in the email, typos, lack of identifying info, etc.  Source: SANS Institute
