Description

National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM) is a month-long event dedicated to the initiative of increasing cybersecurity awareness for individuals and organizations to foster a healthy security culture. Join us to learn more on how to establish a "security-positive" mindset through programs like NCSAM and learn best practices on how associates can experience a casual yet informative learning model encompassing present threats that organizations face daily such as phishing emails. By engaging your associates in an NCSAM Program, you'll see an increase in event participation, reporting of phishing emails, as well as a decrease in overall susceptibility to phishing attempts. Not only can a successful Cybersecurity Awareness Month contribute to improved metrics, but it also allows for a refreshing take on a learning environment that can deliver reinforcement, encouragement, and empowerment when creating a healthy accountability partnership in cybersecurity.
