WASHINGTON – The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) announced the kickoff of the 20th Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Throughout October, CISA and the National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA) will focus on ways to “Secure Our World” by educating the public on how to stay safe online. “Secure Our World” will also be the enduring theme throughout the year as we work to drive behavioral change around core cybersecurity habits by providing everyone with the knowledge and tools they need.
“As cyber threats become more sophisticated, individuals and families, small and medium businesses, and large companies all have an important role to play to in keeping our digital world safe and secure,” said CISA Director Jen Easterly. “This Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we are asking everyone to do their part to ‘Secure Our World’ by adopting key behaviors that promote online safety and security.”
