October is “National Cybersecurity Awareness Month” (NCSAM). For details regarding what LTS has planned for this, please refer to the Daily Shot article here.  There are several events and informational messages that being prepared to increase awareness amongst our users. I strongly encourage you to take advantage of as many of these as possible. I would like to highlight the featured event which is being co-sponsored by Babson, Olin and Wellesley Colleges. Here is the description from the Daily Shot article:

“The featured event is a BOW-sponsored presentation and book signing by John Sileo, an award-winning author, trusted advisor, and leading speaker on successfully managing privacy and reputation exposure. He is CEO of The Sileo Group, which advises clients like 60 Minutes, Blue Cross, the FDIC, Homeland Security, the Pentagon, Pfizer, USA Today, and organizations of all sizes on defending privacy, profits, and reputation. His presentation, “Data Spies, Human Hackers & Internet Attackers: Bulletproof Your Privacy & Profits,” highlights current data privacy trends as well as practical, tactical solutions.

His talk will be held on Friday, October 24 from 10 to 11 a.m. at Babson College in the Olin Hall Auditorium, with a book sale and signing immediately following the presentation. Food and beverage will be provided. Transportation from Wellesley to Babson will also be available; shuttle vans will leave the Campus Center beginning at 9:30 a.m., and will return following the presentation at 11, and then again at11:30 for those wishing to stay for the book signing.
