PORTLAND, Ore., October 1, 2024 — RadarFirst announced its commitment to cybersecurity education by participating as a champion in the 21st Annual Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Founded in 2004, Cybersecurity Awareness Month, held each October, is the world’s foremost initiative to promote cybersecurity awareness and best practices.

“Our organization is fully committed to cybersecurity, recognizing its vital role in protecting our customers, data, and reputation. Our dedication to cybersecurity is unwavering, and we will continue to prioritize it as a top priority for the safety and security of our organization and its stakeholders,” said Rachel Sitarz, RadarFirst Director of Information Security in IT and Facilities.

From mobile to connected home devices, technology is deeply intertwined in our lives. Emerging technologies have many great benefits for society but with those new technologies come new opportunities for bad actors to disrupt our online activities at home, school or at work. 

Cybersecurity Awareness Month aims to highlight some of the emerging challenges that exist in the world of cybersecurity today and provide straightforward, actionable guidance that anyone can follow to create a safe and secure digital world for themselves and their loved ones. 

The theme for Cybersecurity Awareness Month is Secure Our World, which encourages all of us to take four easy steps each day to ensure our online safety: 

• Understand the benefits of using a password manager and dispel existing myths around password manager security and ease of use.
• Turn on multi-factor authentication on personal devices and business networks. 
• Recognize and report phishing – still one of the primary threat actions used by cybercriminals today. 
• Install updates regularly and turn on automatic updates.
