For the past 19 years, October has been recognized as Cybersecurity Awareness Month in the United States.  This year the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA) have collaborated to create a campaign designed to provide information and resources to help educate the public.  Their campaign theme, “See Yourself in Cyber,” reinforces the human element of Cybersecurity.  With this campaign they have established four things you can do to increase your Cybersecurity posture.  To support this campaign Dopkins & Company has released a weekly blog discussing each of the topics below.   Although we’re into November, the need to remain vigilant against data breaches continues.  Read on…

  1. Enable Multi-Factor Authentication
  2. Use Strong Passwords
  3. Recognize and Report Phishing
  4. Update Your Software

While reading these blogs keep the theme (See Yourself in Cyber) in mind.  Each of these key action steps is something YOU can do to increase Cybersecurity at home, work, and school.  While each blog will discuss the actions individuals should take, they will also touch on how businesses can help their employees succeed with each action.
