This year’s theme, ‘Secure Today, Protect Tomorrow’, underscores the importance of taking proactive steps to safeguard against cyber threats in an increasingly digital world.

“Throughout the month, NITDA will focus on equipping citizens and businesses with the necessary tools and knowledge to enhance their security practices, stay safe and avoid criminality while online,” it added.

“October marks Cybersecurity Awareness Month, an opportune time to remind ourselves about the critical importance of protecting our digital lives.

“In an era where our personal and professional activities are deeply intertwined with technology, a robust understanding of cybersecurity is indispensable.

“Cybersecurity refers to the practice of safeguarding computers, servers, mobile devices,electronic systems, networks, and data from malicious attacks.

“It encompasses a wide range of strategies, policies, and technologies designed to protect information from unauthorised access, damage, theft, or disruption.

“As cyber threats continue to evolve and become more sophisticated, the significance of cybersecurity cannot be overstated.

It is crucial not only for individuals but also for businesses, governments, and society at large,” the agency stated.
