Cyber Awareness Month – See Something, Say Something
As Cyber Security Awareness Month 2025 wraps up, it’s worth looking back at the key steps we covered.
-
In week 1, we focused on building strong protection with passphrases and password managers, making it harder for attackers to guess or steal access.
-
Week two highlighted turning on multifactor authentication (MFA), adding an extra layer of security beyond just a password.
-
Week three reminded us to keep our devices updated. Software updates fix weaknesses that attackers are quick to exploit, so staying current helps keep systems safe.
-
In week four, we looked at phishing; how to spot suspicious messages and avoid clicking links or sharing personal details when something feels off.
Cyber security is everyone’s responsibility. If you notice something suspicious - an email, a pop-up, or anything unusual - don’t ignore it. Report all IT security concerns directly to the Information Technology Service Desk.
