National Cyber Security Awareness Month — October 2005

Working in collaboration with our government and industry partners, NCSA is sponsoring National Cyber Security Awareness Month in October 2005. Our mission for this initiative is to raise awareness of cyber security so that users improve their cyber security preparedness. The National Cyber Security Awareness Month will feature fun, educational programs, events and initiatives throughout the month targeting Home Users, Small Businesses, Education audiences (K-12 and higher education), and Child Safety online. We invite you to participate in the National Cyber Security Awareness Month programs so be on the lookout for more information as we approach October. In the meantime check out the Top Eight Cyber Security Practices for more information on keeping your computer safe from hackers. For more information contact NCSARon@aol.com.

The National Cyber Security Awareness Month Calendar is a living document and will change leading up to October. Please email Ron Texeira at NCSARon@aol.com if you would like to add an event to the calendar.
