Celebrating CSAM 2024 at UD
2024 has been an unusual year, to say the least.
This October is the 21st annual Cybersecurity Awareness Month (CSAM), an annual, month-long celebration of cybersecurity in recognition of the growing importance it plays throughout our lives.
Led jointly by the United States Department of Homeland Security and the National Cyber Security Alliance, CSAM helps educate the public about safe computing and information practices. Throughout October, the government and more than 600 public and private organizations nationwide champion the cybersecurity cause.
Stay safe, stay healthy, stay secure
