October 03, 2023 — Integrity Technology Solutions today announced its commitment to cybersecurity education by participating in the 20th Cybersecurity Awareness Month.

Founded in 2004, Cybersecurity Awareness Month, held each October, is the world’s foremost initiative aimed at promoting cybersecurity awareness and best practices.

Cybersecurity Awareness Month is a collaborative effort among businesses, government agencies, colleges and universities, associations, nonprofit organizations, tribal communities, and individuals committed to educating others on online safety. 
 
"Cybersecurity Awareness Month serves as a great reminder to us that we all play a role in protecting sensitive information," said Chad Geiser, director of strategic partnerships for Integrity Technology Solutions.
 
From mobile to connected home devices, technology is deeply intertwined with our lives.

And while the evolution of technology accelerates, cybercriminals are working just as hard to find ways to compromise technology and disrupt personal and business life.

For 20 Octobers and counting, Cybersecurity Awareness Month aims to highlight some of the emerging challenges that exist in the world of cybersecurity today and provide straightforward actionable guidance that anyone can follow to create a safe and secure digital world for themselves and their loved ones. 
 
Starting this year, the new theme of Cybersecurity Awareness Month is Secure Our World, with the main messaging revolving around four key cybersecurity best practices:
    1. Understanding the benefits of using a password manager and dispelling existing myths around password manager security and ease of use.
    2. Turning on multifactor authentication on personal devices and business networks.
    3. Recognizing and reporting phishing – still one of the primary threat actions used by cybercriminals today.
    4. Installing updates on a regular basis and turning on automated updates.

Cybersecurity Awareness Month continues to build momentum and impact with the goal of providing everyone with the information they need to stay safer and more secure online.

Integrity Technology Solutions is proud to support this far-reaching online safety awareness and education initiative which is co-managed by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and the National Cybersecurity Alliance.
