Cybersecurity Awareness Month is an international initiative that educates everyone about online safety and empowers individuals and businesses to protect their data from cybercrime. Even amidst large-scale data breaches and cyberattacks, Cybersecurity Awareness Month reminds everyone that there are simple, effective ways to keep yourself safe online, protect your personal data, and ultimately help secure our world.
PTS is proud to once again be a Cybersecurity Awareness Month Champion and support this online safety and education initiative this October.
The theme of Cybersecurity Awareness Month is Secure Our World! This initiative reminds us that there are simple actions we can take every day to protect ourselves, our families, and businesses from online threats.
Cybersecurity Awareness Month focuses on the top four ways to stay safe online:
1. Use strong passwords and a password manager
2. Turn on multi-factor authentication
3. Recognize and report phishing
4. Update software
Cybersecurity Awareness Month is led by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA) and the National Cybersecurity Alliance.
