Cyber Security Awareness Month 2011

Posted on 7:13 PM by Unknown
For the eighth consecutive year, October has been declared Cyber Security Awareness Month. 

The purpose of Cyber Security Awareness Month is to provide both awareness and education for all digital citizens, whether using a desktop PC, laptop, tablet, smart phone, or multiple devices.

The official declaration was made in the United States in an official proclamation by The President. Again this year, the theme is "Our Shared Responsibility", with Stay Safe Online continuing as the official sponsor site. 


The United States is not alone in declaring October as Cyber Security Awareness Month.  Canada’s Minister of Public Safety kicked off Cyber Security Awareness Month in Canada with the launch of Get Cyber Safe.



Remember - "A day without laughter is a day wasted."
May the wind sing to you and the sun rise in your heart...
