Enduris Announces a Commitment to Secure Our World by Taking Action during Cybersecurity Awareness Month to Reduce Cyber Risk
Enduris is committed to cybersecurity education by participating in the 21st Annual Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Founded in 2004, Cybersecurity Awareness Month, held each October, is the world’s foremost initiative to promote cybersecurity awareness and best practices. The theme of this year’s Cybersecurity Awareness Month is “Secure Our World,” and encourages all of us to take four easy steps each day to ensure our online safety:
- Understand the benefits of using a password manager and dispelling existing myths around password manager security and ease of use.
- Turn on multifactor authentication on personal devices and business networks.
- Recognize and report phishing – still one of the primary threat actions cybercriminals use today.
- Install updates regularly and turn on automated updates.
Technology, from mobile phones to connected home devices, is deeply intertwined with our lives. Emerging technologies have many great benefits for society, but with those new technologies come new opportunities for criminals to disrupt our online activities at home, school, or work. Cybersecurity Awareness Month highlights some emerging challenges in the cybersecurity world today. It provides straightforward, actionable guidance that anyone can follow to create a safe and secure digital world for themselves and their loved ones.
Cybersecurity Awareness Month highlights the growing importance of cybersecurity in our daily lives. It encourages individuals and businesses to take essential cybersecurity steps daily to “Secure Our World” and stay safe online. Cybersecurity Awareness Month continues building momentum and impact to provide everyone with the information they need to stay safe and secure online. Enduris is proud to support this crucial online safety awareness and education initiative, led by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and the National Cybersecurity Alliance.
