October is Cyber Security Awareness Month (Cyber Month) in Canada and we at the Nova Scotia Community College are proud to be a Get Cyber Safe champion working to help Canadians stay safe online. Cyber Month is an important time to reflect, as individuals and as an organization, on how we can protect ourselves and our loved ones online.
What does it mean to be a Cyber Month champion? It means that Nova Scotia Community College will be engaging with Get Cyber Safe's online campaign and sharing expertise on cyber safety – we would love for you to get involved. As many of you know, cybersecurity is a shared responsibility. Here's what you can do to help:
