Ken Thanks for the clear delineation between all the days. It's the best explanation I've heard to date. I especially like that there is no mention of which date or week is correct. It's not a dichotomy in this situation - the more the better! Any chance privacy will be integrated with the awareness efforts? They seem to be intrinsically connected. Melissa -------Original Message------- From: The EDUCAUSE Security Discussion Group Listserv Date: 04/21/04 07:24:29 To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: Re: [SECURITY] Information Security Awareness Day , Week At the "federal" or US National level it is intended that 9/10 be a day not just for Information Security Awareness, but security and safety awareness overall. We already have "CyberSecurity" Days in the spring and fall with daylight savings time, there is also Computer Security Day from the ACM on November 30. There was a firewall security day earlier this year. The intention is to create a day of observance that is not specific to cyber physical, a vendor or a technology. Just good old fashioned "Be Aware or BeWARE". Add September 10, 2004 to your calendars and lets all increase our awareness every day leading up to it and every day after it. Melissa great work on the materials and sharing. Ken ------ Ken M.

Please let me know if you need any additional information Or material Currently - information Security Awareness day on the Federal level is 9/10 - the Week is designated as the fourth week in April - I realize not much time but I have material all ready to use. You just need to let me know if you are interested. Thanks - " you can force them to change their password, but how to you have them change their behaviors?" It takes knowledge (what to do), skill (how to do) and attitude (want to or shy to do) Melissa ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Discussion Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/cg/ ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Discussion Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/cg/.
