CyberSecurity Awareness Month

CyberSecurity Month - October 2008

October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month. This event is sponsored by the National Cyber Security Alliance, a collaboration of public and private institutions. NCSA provides tools and resources to empower home users, schools, colleges, and universities to stay safe online.

To promote cyber security awareness at Illinois State, we are bringing together topics that help you stay safe online. These topics include peer-to-peer file sharing (week 1), phishing scams and identity theft (week 2), viruses and spyware (week 3), and security at Illinois State University (week 4).

Security is everyone's responsibility. Get secure. Stay secure.
