Starting tomorrow, Wednesday, Bangladesh will observe the 10th Cybersecurity Awareness Month, aimed at raising awareness about cybersecurity among students and people from various professions across the country. This initiative has been conducted by the private organization, Cyber Crime Awareness Foundation (CCAF), since 2016.

The program is sponsored by mobile operator Robi Axiata PLC, technology company Palo Alto Networks, Smart Data Technologies, and Fiber@Home. Additionally, Cyber Support for Women and Children (CSW&C) will assist in implementing awareness activities nationwide.

During October, weekly campaigns will focus on specific topics: the first week on password management, the second week on multi-factor authentication, the third week on regular software updates, and the fourth week on avoiding suspicious links.

The program will feature topic-based discussions, seminars, quizzes, and debate competitions in Dhaka and other regions. Educational institutions, organizations, and individuals are all welcome to participate.
