October is National Cyber-security Awareness Month. This is incredibly important for business owners and their employees.

This year’s theme is “Own IT. Secure IT. Protect IT.”

For this special month, it’s a good idea to take a look at your online security measures in your personal and business life. Businesses can get assessments done to evaluate how secure there cyber information is.

On a personal level, be sure to safeguard your information when browsing, shopping, or doing other activities online. Something as simple as looking for secure websites (with the lock symbol in the search bar) can make a big difference.
