NCVLI Endorses National Cyber Security Awareness Month

October marks the seventh annual National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM).  This campaign urges individuals, families, schools, businesses, and governments to learn how to protect individual computers, and through this shared effort, protect the country’s cyber infrastructure.  NCVLI recognizes that computer users’ safety and security online is increasingly compromised by fraud-related crime.  In response, NCVLI is addressing this growing issue through our recently launched Responding to Online Fraud Project.
