Re: Security Awareness Week or Month

[Carol Myers <carol.myers () PVMAIL MARICOPA EDU>]

Here is the information presented on the Educause Security Task Force
web pages for cybersecurity awareness
http://www.educause.edu/SecurityResourceKit/7479

There's a great deal of information already there that will help in
defining and building a program for cybersecurity awareness.  The
resource kit information is very useful.

Thanks,

Carol
