“Cybercrime is now part of our daily news cycle – it’s unavoidable. Threats are real and the risk is constant. Yet a few simple actions can go a long way to avoid them,” says Jetico CEO, Michael Waksman. “We are grateful to join forces with NCSA to better educate all types of people and help create routines for ensuring our safety and privacy online.”
Now in its 16th year, NCSAM continues to build momentum and impact with the ultimate goal of providing all Americans with the information they need to stay safer and more secure online. Jetico is proud to support this far-reaching online safety awareness and education initiative which is co-led by the National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA) and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA) of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
“Cybersecurity is important to the success of all businesses and organizations. NCSA is proud to have such a strong and active community helping to encourage proactive behavior and prioritize cybersecurity in their organizations,” said Kelvin Coleman, executive director, NCSA.
