Celebrating 20 Years Of Cybersecurity
20 years of making the connected world a safer place for people, businesses, and governments worldwide
This month marks two decades since the commencement of Cybersecurity Awareness Month and its significance has only grown with each fleeting time. This month is an occasion to reflect on the progress made in the realm of cybersecurity and do a review of your cybersecurity preventative practices in place.
The Cybersecurity Awareness Campaign began in 2004 by the National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA) and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to offer digital security. It was initiated to educate people on ways to protect their online data and identity and safeguard themselves against cyber criminals.
Over time, it has expanded into a global movement, engaging individuals, businesses, and governments in raising mindfulness about the increasing role cybersecurity is playing and the significance of knowing and implementing systems in place to protect the data.
This campaign has fostered a heightened sense of vigilance and digital alertness in the U.S. business world. Now, more and more businesses, irrespective of their size, participate in educational initiatives such as workshops and seminars to increase cybersecurity awareness among employees.
For some, such as data security companies, it has become mandatory to continuously educate themselves regarding the next newest levels of cybersecurity. This helps in being better equipped against data phishing, digital theft, and cyberbullying and creating a safe business environment.
One initiative that began in the 1990s that is becoming more prominent due to cybersecurity hacking is two-factor authentication. Taking this to the next level cybersecurity companies are bringing to the front 2-way identity verification, which ensures safe and secure online payment options, password protection and other confidential data.
