The National Cybersecurity Alliance and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) recently released their 2024 guide for Cybersecurity Awareness Month.
Here’s how they begin:
“Cybersecurity Awareness Month is an international initiative that highlights actions everyone can take to stay safe online. Even amidst large-scale data breaches and cyber attacks, Cybersecurity Awareness Month reminds everyone that there are simple, effective ways to stay safe online, protect personal data, and ultimately help Secure Our World. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the federal lead for the campaign, and the National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA) create resources for organizations to talk to their employees and customers about staying safe online. Cybersecurity Awareness Month is supported by corporations, government agencies, schools, tribes, nonprofits and professionals dedicated to cybersecurity education and protecting our communities.
“The theme for Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2024 is “Secure Our World.” Launched in 2023, Secure Our World empowers everyone to understand the simple ways to protect yourself, your family and your business from online threats. We’re increasingly connected through digital tools and more of our sensitive information is online. This convenience comes with risks. Each of us has a part to play in keeping ourselves and others safe. It’s easy to do and takes less time than you think.”

- Key Messages and Fast Facts
- A Social Media Guide
- Sample Email Announcement
- Sample Press Release
- Building Your Campaign
