ICT Security-Sécurité PC et Internet

In his opening keynote Art Coviello referred to October being the U.S. National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM), which is marked by a series of events to provide consumer education and guidance for improved online safety and security. As part of our contribution to NCSAM we announced the results of a scam defense survey, which shares the top five most common scams that impact adults in the U.S.

 

Of course, the U.S. is not alone in this effort. For example, I recently spoke to a colleague in Italy about the Global Cyber Security Center (GCSEC), a not-for-profit organization that develops and disseminates knowledge and awareness on cyber security issues to improve skills, cooperation and communication between groups involved in the use and protection of the Internet.

 

Recently a coalition of private companies, nonprofits and government organizations such as Canada’s Public Safety Canada and GET CYBER SAFE announced their adoption of STOP. THINK. CONNECT.™ — a unified online safety message
developed in 2009 to support national cyber security awareness. Microsoft is a founding member and the message is gaining strong momentum across the globe. In addition, on February 5, 2013 many countries will unite via International Safer Internet Day to share online safety guidance and advice to consumers.
