National Cyber Security Awareness Month

Monday, October 3, 2011 at 4:28pm by Pamela Warren

Welcome to Cyber Security Awareness Month in the U.S.  This month will be filled with activities to help us spread greater cyber security awareness to all ages of internet users.  Here in the U.S., McAfee employees will be taking to the classroom to help school-age children understand how to stay safe, secure and behave ethically online. We will be facilitating business events to help our customers instill a greater sense of cyber awareness with their employees within all size businesses, and we’ll be inviting our channel partners to join us in our pursuits.

 This Friday, 7 October, Michigan Governor Rick Snyder and other officials will join NCSA stakeholders and leaders from the Department of Homeland Security to officially kick-off National Cyber Security Awareness Month. The official launch event will take place during the Michigan Cyber Summit and is expected to draw highly regarded cyber security experts from around the world. NCSA leaders will also share several findings from a national poll on security and online safety for users.

You don’t have to be there in person – join us via Facebook Live. For more details or to register, you can visit: www.michigan.gov/cybersummit. 

If you are a cyber security professional in the U.S. or abroad, start thinking about how you can share your knowledge with those in your community who need more cyber security assistance and insight. 

Of course, you don’t have to wait for any official Cyber Security Awareness event – just consider this month’s activities here in the U.S. as a gentle reminder that you have a lot to give to your communities in this way! Join us in celebrating National Cyber Security Awareness Month!
