When?

The month of October.

Why?

Cyber Security Awareness Month (or just Cyber Month) is an internationally recognized campaign held each October to help the public learn more about the importance of cyber security. We at Fleming College are proud to be a Get Cyber Safe champion.

This year’s Cyber Month theme is Generation Cyber Safe: Because online security knows no age. Online security affects all Canadians. Every generation is part of Generation Cyber Safe and we’re celebrating how much stronger each generation can be when they come together to stay safe online.

How?

Stay tuned as the month ahead will include:

• • a weekly mailer and/or newsletter
  • events and activities
  • tools that can keep you safe online
  • simple steps to start and practice getting cyber safe
  • prizes for participation
