Welcome to Cybersecurity Awareness Month!
We hope everyone has enjoyed these games and videos during the month. Come back and review all you learned this month!
Every October, UT Health Science Center is a champion for Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a month dedicated to learning more about cybersecurity and what you and your family can do to keep everyone safe. This year, our games will be Wordles on Mondays and Thursdays, your normal Tip of the Week on Tuesdays, online games on Wednesdays, and videos on Fridays.听
