What is Cyber Security Month?
Also known as National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM),
Cyber Security Month is an annual event observed in the UK, US, and
Europe to promote the importance of cyber security. It aims to
enhance understanding and encourage good cyber practices among
individuals, businesses, and organisations.
During this month, government agencies, non-profits and cyber
experts collaborate to offer educational materials, workshops, and
events on topics like online safety, password security, and the
importance of updating software. The campaign encourages proactive
measures against cyber threats and emphasises the collective
responsibility in cyber protection.
