Hallo 2020

We're a month into 2020 and wishing you a prosperous year seems slightly after the fact. Nonetheless – may this year treat you well. We will do everything within our means to keep the internet up and running and the cyber criminals at bay.

One of our attempts to minimise cyber risks is the implementation of a warning on external emails. Look out for the yellow banner! Good luck with the first stretch of the academic quarter and see you in March.
