National Cyber Security Awareness Month 2008 is HERE!

Created by Valerie M. Vogel (EDUCAUSE) on October 1, 2008

October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM). As we rely more on technology-based solutions in our everyday lives, cybersecurity becomes everyone's responsibility. We encourage you to consider ways you can raise awareness among your faculty, staff, and students and invite you to help promote NCSAM. For further suggestions, please consult the Resource Kit for National Cyber Security Awareness Month, developed by the EDUCAUSE/Internet2 Security Task Force.

Additional EDUCAUSE resources include:

Additional National Cyber Security Alliance resources include:

NCSAM Web Banners, Events, Materials, and Endorsers

Many colleges and universities are planning events or developing awareness resources for NCSAM that we would like to highlight as part of higher education's ongoing efforts to increase awareness within our community. A list of institutions holding events in 2008 is currently available online. We would like to update this list with your events that will be held this October. Please share the URL or plans for your NCSAM-related initiatives with the participants on the Security Discussion list, or send an email to: Security-Task-Force@educause.edu.

There are also several exciting, cross-sector security awareness events in October. They are:

Rochester Security Summit (University of Rochester)
Who's Watching Charlottesville? (University of Virginia)
