October marks Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a nationwide initiative to promote safer online practices and protect individuals and organizations from cyber threats. For community banks, this is a prime opportunity to reinforce their commitment to cybersecurity not just internally, but also across their customer base.
Cybersecurity Awareness Month offers a structured approach to educating staff and customers on how to identify and respond to threats such as phishing, ransomware, and identity theft.
The Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) provides a Cybersecurity Awareness Month Toolkit that banks can customize for their own use. This toolkit includes ready-made graphics, messaging, and educational materials designed to engage both employees and customers.
