In October, Queen’s University participates in Cybersecurity Awareness Month – an internationally-recognized campaign dedicated to creating a secure and resilient cyber environment at institutions across the globe. The campaign spans many industries globally, all with the goal of helping the public to learn more about the importance of cybersecurity and protecting their data.

Queen’s will recognize Cybersecurity Awareness Month (CSAM) by providing students, staff, and faculty with online resources to emphasize the significance of electronic information security. Weekly content pertaining to common cybersecurity scams, how to report cybersecurity concerns to IT Services, safe internet and social media use, and protecting online identities will be provided through the Queen’s IT Services CSAM webpage.

Additionally, IT Services will be organizing campus demonstrations, distributing social media content, and awarding weekly prizes to community members to highlight the importance of cybersecurity.
