Share Your Campus Plans to Observe National Cyber Security Awareness Month 2010

[Valerie Vogel <vvogel () EDUCAUSE EDU>]

October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM) and the
Higher Education Information Security Council (HEISC) would like to
encourage you to consider ways you can raise awareness among your
faculty, staff, and students.

Many colleges and universities are already planning events or developing
awareness resources specifically for NCSAM. So now we'd like to hear
from you! Are you trying something new this year? Perhaps you're
coordinating a 1-day conference, inviting guest speakers, or planning
fun student activities such as a scavenger hunt or costume contest. 

We've started a list of institutions holding events in October 2010 as a
way to highlight higher education's ongoing efforts to increase
awareness within our community. If you haven't done so already, please
share the URL or plans for your NCSAM-related initiatives with this list
or send us an e-mail (security-council () educause edu). 

If you need additional resources, this blog post will point you to
several websites with FREE educational materials:

Thank you - and good luck with you events and activities in October!
Valerie
