What did you learn during Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2023?

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Each year since 2004, the Office of the President and Congress have set aside the month of October to raise awareness about the importance of cybersecurity and to offer updated recommendations for small businesses and individuals about how to protect against hacks, strengthen their data privacy infrastructures and employ best cybersecurity practices.

The theme of the 2023 Cybersecurity Awareness Month was “Secure Our World.” CISA (Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency) provided updated recommendations for businesses and individuals.
