Help Us Secure Our World this Cybersecurity Awareness Month

October 2, 2024

Cybersecurity Awareness Month highlights the growing importance of cybersecurity in our daily lives. This initiative reminds us there are simple actions we can take every day to protect ourselves, our families, and businesses from online threats.

The theme of Cybersecurity Awareness Month is Secure Our World and focuses on the top four ways to stay safe online:

1. Use Strong Passwords and a Password Manager
2. Turn on Multifactor Authentication (when possible)
3. Update your Software
4. Recognize and Report Phishing

Cybersecurity Awareness Month continues to build momentum and impact with the goal of providing everyone with the information they need to stay safe and more secure online. McLennan Community College (MCC) is proud to support this critically important online safety awareness and education initiative, this October.

Cybersecurity Awareness Month is led by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA) and the National Cybersecurity Alliance. For more information about ways to keep you and your family safe online visit CISA: Cybersecurity Awareness Month and Stay Safe Online: Cybersecurity Awareness Month.
