Secure Our World — Overview
October marks Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a global effort to raise awareness about online safety and equip individuals and businesses with tools to safeguard their data from cyber threats. Even amidst large-scale data breaches and cyberattacks, this Cyber month reminds everyone that there are straightforward and effective measures you can take daily to fortify online security, protect personal information, and contribute to a safer digital environment.
Blackswan Cybersecurity is proud to work with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to support this online safety and education initiative this October.
This year’s theme, Secure Our World, encourages daily actions that can help protect individuals, families, and organizations from cyber risks.
The Secure Our World campaign highlights four essential practices for staying safe online:
1. Use strong passwords and a password manager
2. Enable multifactor authentication
3. Identify and report phishing attempts
4. Keep software up to date
Cybersecurity Awareness Month is led by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA) and the National Cybersecurity Alliance.
