October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month!

Cybersecurity is the practice of protecting networks, devices, and data from unauthorized access or criminal use – and it isn’t just for IT professionals.

It is important to understand that most cybercriminals do not target computer systems; they target computer users.

By deceiving and manipulating legitimate users, criminals convince them to voluntarily take actions that make their devices and data more vulnerable to cyberattacks.
