October is a time of pumpkins, apples, and, of course, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s (CISA) National Cybersecurity Awareness Month (NCAM). This year marks its 21st anniversary.
This event gets bigger every year—which makes sense given the ever-increasing number of data breaches and cyberattack headlines we read regularly. The need to raise awareness of these threats and reduce the risk of them affecting us has never been greater.
This year’s theme, "Secure Your Digital Life," encourages everyone to be proactive about safeguarding their digital presence with some key tips to help you stay safe online and make smart cybersecurity decisions.
Many of these are simple measures you can take today to protect yourself from cyber threats and digital attacks.
At Advisor360°, we view National Cybersecurity Awareness Month as an opportunity to reinforce the role we all play in building our cybersecurity resiliency. Cybersecurity truly is a team sport, and it’s something we prioritize throughout the year, not just in October.
Whether it’s creating secure coding challenges, educational sessions, simulating attacks, or providing insight into some of our capabilities, it’s all part of strengthening our risk-aware culture.
In our ever-connected digital world, the need to remain vigilant and follow these key tips continues to grow. By doing so, we not only help secure our digital lives but also minimize the risk of becoming the next cybercrime statistic. Enjoy your pumpkin latte and apple picking, folks!
More information on CISA and National Cybersecurity Awareness Month resources is available here.
