The Role of Leadership in Cyber Awareness
Imagine this: an executive unknowingly clicks on a malicious link in a phishing email or an employee leaves their work laptop unlocked in a public cafe. These seemingly small actions can quickly snowball into a major crisis for a business. The truth is that business leaders play a critical role in shaping the security culture. When they prioritize cybersecurity and actively participate in training, it sends a powerful message to the entire organization. A security-first culture starts at the top, with leaders setting the tone and demonstrating good practices themselves. This not only reduces the risk of cyberattacks but also fosters a sense of shared responsibility among employees.

Every day is a holiday and some fun and strange ones are out there. Let's take a look at a few that are coming up this month.

Fun Fact: Did you know that on this day, February 3, 1966, the first weather satellite (ESSA-1) was launched into orbit from Cape Canaveral, Florida?

Change Your Password Day - February 1, 2025

If you’re reading this, you have a holiday to add to your calendar: Change Your Password Day, which is celebrated annually on February 1. Now, most of our transactions occur online; thus, our personal and confidential information is liable to be hacked. This makes it important to keep our online data safe by changing our passwords. Do you know that the average American’s fear is getting hacked?

Reclaim Social Day - February 6, 2025

Reclaim Social Day is a global movement that takes place on February 6 annually. With the growing negativity on social media, the day presents a chance to raise awareness of its positive aspects. For example, Twitter is widely used to convey news and information during disasters and support rescue operations. It also allows strangers to connect and offer assistance.

The day started with Lightful, a tech-for-good start-up, that launched a one-day online campaign to encourage greater kindness on social media to reclaim platforms such as Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, which, according to them, have now become filled with fake news, trolls, and haters. Let’s share some of our favorite beneficial uses of social media with the world!

You don’t have to be a superstar or an influencer to make a difference; just tell us your story. Reclaim Social Day aims to bring attention to the positive aspects of social media and you’re a part of it.

Love Data Week - February 10-14, 2025

Love Data Week is observed around Valentine’s Day each year. The actual date of Love Data Week often changes by year and is usually determined by a governing body, but this year, it takes place from February 10 to 14. However, the goal remains the same: celebrating data, and raising global awareness about the importance of data science and management. Stakeholders use the day as an opportunity to convene a community of data scientists and discuss contemporary issues affecting data management, sharing, privacy, preservation, reuse, and delivery.

Safer Internet Day - February 11, 2025

Get your modems going, because February 11 is Safer Internet Day! These days you can do almost anything on the Internet. You can play games, connect with friends, purchase that new outfit you didn’t think you needed but now know you do. It’s an extraordinary feeling to have an infinite amount of access to information and entertainment at your fingertips. The world wide web has come a long way from the Yahoo Geocities and the “You’ve Got Mail” of yesteryear. On February 11 we acknowledge these vast developments and the difficulties that may come with these changes by observing Safer Internet Day.
