A Segurança Cibernética tem como objetivo fazer face a uma ameaça moderna que está presente na vida de todos.

 

Os dados, finanças e memórias das pessoas nunca estarão a salvo de ameaças cibernéticas.

 

Um exemplo recente de Comunicação Pública foi a criação de uma experiência social que chamasse a atenção da generalidade do público para o tema da segurança cibernética. Além disso, forneceria resultados valiosos e mensuráveis que poderiam ser compartilhados com os media de forma a ampliar a mensagem, enquadrando a ação no acesso e disponibilização de informação de interesse público/coletivo.

Its reputation was well established on the professional scene, but there was a concern here about reaching people, namely workers, who had little or no knowledge of IT.

Its objectives were to address a new and less tech-savvy audience, while at the same time claiming credibility in a vital area. The campaign, developed by professionalsThe project was the creation of a program for National Cyber Security Awareness Month. The project focused on a social experiment, testing security practices in the workplace.

The willingness to insert unknown devices into workplace networks that could contain malicious software was alarming, even in the case of non-professionals.

The results of the experiment were shared with the media and complemented with a survey on IT security habits. All of this was timed during National Cyber Security Awareness Month, which gave the campaign even greater visibility, further emphasizing the importance of cyber security training, not just for company employees, but for society in general.
