Under the leadership of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the National Cyber Security Alliance, National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM) was created in 2004 as a collaborative effort between government and industry to ensure every American has the resources they need to stay safer and more secure online.
2018 marks the 15th year of NCSAM, so the cyber security experts at Prosource decided to create their own version of NSCAM to help SMBs across the United States increase their understanding of common strategies used by cyber criminals and ways to keep their SMBs protected against cyber attacks.
Every Monday in October we’ll send out an email with the week’s 7 cyber security tips to help your business become more vigilant against cyber threats. You can also check our Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter pages for daily tips and tricks.
