🔐 Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2025 — “Secure Today. Empower Tomorrow.”
October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and it’s a reminder that security isn’t just an IT responsibility — it’s everyone’s job.
This year’s theme, “Secure Today. Empower Tomorrow.”, focuses on building strong security habits that protect not only our organization, but also our families, communities, and digital futures.
Here are four simple steps we can all take right now:
Think Before You Click
Phishing is still the #1 cause of breaches.
Slow down, inspect the sender, and hover before you click links or open attachments.
Use Strong, Unique Passwords
Use a password manager and turn on multi-factor authentication (MFA) everywhere you can.
Update & Patch Regularly
Keep your devices and applications updated — outdated software is an open door for attackers.
Report Incidents Immediately
If something feels off — a strange email, a suspicious pop-up, or a lost device — report it to IT right away. Fast reporting stops attacks before they spread.
💡 Remember: Security awareness is about empowerment, not fear.
Every click, every login, and every update helps protect our patients, data, and systems.
Let’s make this Cybersecurity Awareness Month a reminder that we all play a part in keeping our digital world safe.
