Re: Information Security Awareness Day , Week

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.

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.

Please take time to consider sending a note to your Governor to ask for a
proclamation for Security Awareness Day or Week,
Governor Napalitano just dedicated the fourth week in April as Information
Security Awareness Day - many initiative can be done and I have alot of
material I would be willing to donate.
 
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)
