October is National Cyber Security Awareness Month. The world is more connected today than ever before, and internet usage plays a major role in our daily lives. We enjoy the benefits and convenience that cyberspace provides as we shop and bank online, use smartphones for everything from ordering a coffee to securing a bank loan, and interact with friends from around the world through social networks. Everyone has to play a role in cyber-security. Constantly evolving cyber threats require the engagement of everyone — from government and law enforcement to the private sector and most importantly, the public. Below are some links to help protect you, your family, and your co-workers from potential cyber threats. Only by working together will we continue to make Dublin a safe place to live, work and visit.
