Since 2004, Cybersecurity Awareness Month is an annual campaign held to increase global awareness about the importance of cybersecurity within our increasingly connected world. Secure our World is the chosen theme for the 20th year of the campaign, focusing on encouraging individuals, communities and organisations to learn more about the risks around cybercrime, adopt safe online practices and enhance their overall digital security.

“Today, digital technology underpins nearly all aspects of our lives. If the last 20 years have shown us anything, it is that while cybersecurity has seen significant change – with advancements in technology, human behavior remains one of the most crucial elements in safeguarding our online activity. Ironically, the most effective protection from cyberthreats often comes from the simple and everyday practices we adopt, rather than the technology we use. By committing to ongoing education, training, and vigilance around fundamental security habits, individuals and organizations can play their part in protecting our collective digital lives.” said Lisa Plaggemier, Executive Director at the National Cybersecurity Alliance.

iStorage is proud to be a Champion Organization for Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2024. With the increasing rise of remote and hybrid working, coupled with the increasing frequency and sophistication of cyber- attacks, underscores the need for advanced data protection solutions. Data security is more critical than ever in today’s digital age.

"With the rise in remote work, sophisticated ransomware attacks, and increased privacy regulations, organisations need to reevaluate their cybersecurity measures. Secure encryption and regular data backups are essential to prevent data breaches and ensure business continuity." said John Michael, CEO and Founder, iStorage.
