National Cybersecurity Awareness Month focuses on cyber security, the dangers of cyber crimes, and what we can do to prevent them. Cyber crimes are rising, with the internet touching almost all aspects of our daily lives. These include identity theft, credit card theft, Ponzi schemes, bait and switch, extortion, spying, and bullying; almost anything that can happen in the real world has a web world cousin.
This month, Homeland Security, police, and other organizations devoted to fighting crime and national security will launch public education campaigns and workshops to help people spot attacks. The best way to observe this month is to check your cyber security.
1) When was the last time you updated your virus database?
2) Can you spot a phishing email when you see one?
3) Have you fully scanned your computer to ensure there are no Trojan horses, malware, or unauthorized access points?
4) Are you using a VPN when you’re in public to protect your information from prying eyes?
5) Do you use a privacy screen on the computer you use in public?
6) When was the last time you updated your passwords?
7) Have you set your privacy settings on mobile devices and social media to give you security?
You can do these things to increase your cybersecurity, and this is the month to do it. Many software and hardware manufacturers will promote security-related products in honor of this month.
