The members of the Cyber Security Experts Association of
Nigeria (CSEAN) are getting ready for the 2016 National Cyber Security
Awareness Month (NCSAM), reports ITRealms.
President of CSEAN, Mr. Remi Afon revealed this to ITRealms at the weekend, urging members to warm up for the annual awareness month campaign to be led by the National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA) and the United States
(US) Department of Homeland Security through webinar on Thursday, July 28, this year.
The month-long campaign, he said, every October for the past 13 years to ensure everyone on earth has the opportunity
to stay safer, more secured and better able to protect their personal information
online.
“Cybersecurity is a shared responsibility, and all individuals
and organizations have roles to play in promoting a safer, more secure and more
trusted Internet,” he said.
According to him, as organizations and individuals prepare
for NCSAM, it is important for CSEAN members to tune in to a webcast with
NCSA Executive Director, Michael Kaiser and Director, SANS
Securing The Human, Lance Spitzner; to get the latest on what's coming
this October via webinar.
The webinar, Afon noted, would offer some tips for carrying
out organizational awareness and education efforts.
In addition, CSEAN president pointed out that attendees will
have the opportunity to ask questions about NCSAM 2016 as prepare for the month
gears up.
He encouraged CSEAN members to ensure they participate through the webinar or send their questions,
comments and feedback to: organizer20@sans.org.
ITRealms recalls that CSEAN is a non-profit organisation
made up of information security professionals, centred on a collective purpose
and vision to be a vehicle championing the cause and awareness of information
security best practices, especially in Nigeria.
