European Cybersecurity Month

Since 2012, October has been the European Cybersecurity Month (#CyberSecMonth), an initiative organised by the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA).

In this edition, the chosen theme is ‘Think Before U Click’ (#ThinkB4UClick) and the month will focus on two themes: “Digital skills” and “Cyber scams.

INCIBE, as the leading cybersecurity body for citizens and companies, participates in this initiative, just as it does every year, through activities and content aimed at its target audiences. And it will do so not only during the month of October, but also in the months following until the end of the year.
