Today’s consumers are increasingly at risk for fraud. Sophisticated scammers are taking advantage of every opportunity they can leverage to trick people into sharing information, money, or both. That’s why it is important for credit unions to make the most out of awareness campaigns like October’s Cybersecurity Awareness Month to educate members about how they can increase their online security.
To help your credit union share tips and resources throughout the month, the League has customized social media assets, puzzles, a poster, and an informative blog that you can utilize for free. To access these turnkey materials, visit the League’s website. If you have difficulty downloading any of these tools or if you need additional assistance to promote Cybersecurity Awareness Month, please contact Jake Holmes, the League’s Director of Outreach & Financial Education, at jholmes@mainecul.org.
The enduring theme for Cybersecurity Awareness Month is Secure Our World. This theme can be amplified on social media using the hashtag, #SecureOurWorld.
