Seimitsu Committed to Growing Global Cybersecurity Success during Cybersecurity Awareness Month

SAVANNAH, Ga. - Oct. 4, 2023 - PRLog -- (SAVANNAH, GA) Seimitsu (https://www.seimitsu.com/) announces its commitment to cybersecurity education by participating in the 20th Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Founded in 2004, Cybersecurity Awareness Month, held each October, is the world's foremost initiative aimed at promoting cybersecurity awareness and best practices. Cybersecurity Awareness Month is a collaborative effort among businesses, government agencies, colleges and universities, associations, nonprofit organizations, tribal communities, and individuals committed to educating others on online safety.

"The threat landscape faced by small and medium sized businesses is bigger than ever", says Scott Scheidt, Seimitsu Chief Security Officer. "The need for high-grade affordable technology services has never been greater. We must also have education and threat awareness for owners and workers so they can grow organizational cyber hygiene to better absorb any issues they may face while working on the core activities of their own respective organizations. We are honored to be a part of this year's Cybersecurity Awareness Month outreach and look forward to helping to strengthen the businesses of Savannah and the Low Country."

From mobile to connected home devices, technology is deeply intertwined with our lives. And while the evolution of technology accelerates, cybercriminals are working just as hard to find ways to compromise technology and disrupt personal and business life. For twenty Octobers and counting, Cybersecurity Awareness Month aims to highlight some of the emerging challenges that exist in the world of cybersecurity today and provide straightforward actionable guidance that anyone can follow to create a safe and secure digital world for themselves and their loved ones.

Starting this year, the new theme of Cybersecurity Awareness Month is Secure Our World (https://www.cisa.gov/secure-our-world), with the main messaging revolving around four key cybersecurity best practices:
1. Understanding the benefits of using a password manager and dispelling existing myths around password manager security and ease of use.
2. Turning on multifactor authentication on personal devices and business networks.
3. Recognizing and reporting phishing – still one of the primary threat actions used by cybercriminals today.
4. Installing updates on a regular basis and turning on automated updates.
Cybersecurity Awareness Month continues to build momentum and impact with the goal of providing everyone with the information they need to stay safer and more secure online. Seimitsu is proud to support this far-reaching online safety awareness and education initiative which is co-managed by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (https://www.cisa.gov/) and the National Cybersecurity Alliance (https://staysafeonline.org/).
