Cybersecurity Awareness Month – October
Cybersecurity Awareness Month, established twenty years ago by the President of the United States and U.S. Congress, is set to bring awareness to cybersecurity practices. Dedicating October to Cybersecurity aims to encourage public and private sectors to work together to raise awareness about the importance and uprising nature of cybersecurity around the world.
In 2023 and 2024, the theme was “Secure Our World”. The goal was to make cybersecurity a discipline that will be incorporated in people’s everyday lives to protect themselves online or using connected devices. The program, sponsored by the Department of Defense of Office of Small Business Programs (OSBP), promotes best practices and behavioral change. Particularly focusing on how to protect yourself, friends, family, colleagues, and your business from online threats.
The Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) “provides information on best practices to help individuals and organizations implement preventative measures and manage cyber risks.” CISA offers a wide range of cybersecurity services and resources to aid operational resilience, organizational management of external dependencies, cybersecurity practices, and key elements of what it takes to make a resilient cyber framework.
