In general you should at least have one group named **CyberNut** that is used **only** for Technical Administrators and Team Captains.  This group is used for the Single Sign On feature to CyberNut. Most users will conduct all activities using Gmail or Outlook and will not log in to CyberNut directly. Phishing simulation campaigns can be scheduled using general emails that apply to any department or specifically to the following departments: **Teachers, Administrators, Finance, HR, IT and Student Services.** In order to assign a campaign with specific department email templates, you should create Microsoft Groups that can be selected when creating the phishing campaign. Follow these directions to create a Microsoft Group. 1. Login to the **Microsoft 365 Admin Center** at [https://admin.cloud.microsoft/](https://admin.cloud.microsoft/) 2.
