Around 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, January 30, the MyBlugold Intranet service went offline due to technical malfunctions. Service was restored a few hours later, however there are still some behind-the-scenes services like "search" and "metadata keywords" that have not been fully restored yet. We are currently working closely with Microsoft to fix these last few areas of service as quickly as possible. In the meantime, people can still access their sites and content just as before.
Around 6p the https://myBlugold.uwec.edu site went offline. LTS is working to restore service as soon as possible.
We have had a large number of people calling about the latest phishing attack. The subject heading says ""+* Suspencion of Your Email" and claims to be from University of Wisconsin Colleges.
It is just another phishing attack trying to get you to enter your username and password so it can be used for illegal purposes. Please delete this email. We have blocked the address but these crooks are constantly finding new ways to steal confidential data.
