Why is Cybersecurity Education and Awareness Important?
Effective cybersecurity to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of Queen’s information and resources, requires that every individual at the University do their part and follow the best practices.
Cybersecurity training and awareness educates Queen’s members to understand, recognize, prevent, and respond to security incidents.
