October is Cyber Security Awareness Month

Staying safe online is about making good choices and being aware of threats – professionally and personally.

This year, during Cyber Security Awareness month, do you See Yourself in Cyber?

Although cybersecurity may seem complex, online experiences are safe or unsafe because of the choices people make while online. When you See Yourself in Cyber, you recognize that by making smart decisions on the job, at home or at school you can limit the potential threats to your online security.


Here are four things you can do immediately to protect yourself from potential threats:


  • Enable Multi-Factor Authentication
  • Use Strong Passwords
  • Recognize and Report Phishing
  • Update Your Software
