FAQs
When Is National Computer Security Day?
National Computer Security Day occurs every November 30th.
Why Was National Computer Security Day Created?
National Computer Security Day is designed to raise awareness about cyber security issues, and to help people maintain online security. For example, many people reuse passwords, but a fair number of those individuals may not know that reusing passwords means that a hacker is more likely to gain access to their credit card number than otherwise. Taking the time to review password security best practices can help individuals avoid compromised credit cards, among other unwanted scenarios.
National Computer Security Day empowers people to take ownership of their online presence and identity.
