The Regulatory Agency for Electronic Communications and Postal Services in its capacity of the National CERT of the Republic of Serbia marks the international Cybersecurity Month with its campaign “Knowledge is power”, aiming to raise awareness on the importance of cybersecurity by getting informed about current cyber threats and incidents, as well as the best ways of prevention and protection.

This year’s campaign includes webinars dedicated to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and employees of the Regulatory Agency for Electronic Communications and Postal Services, including a media workshop for journalists and students of journalism. The SME webinar will provide information about latest news and events in the area of cyber security, free tools that can be useful in the everyday SME business activities and recommendations for a safe work and reduced business risk. The webinar is set to take place on October 20, 2021 and all interested SMEs can apply by email: office@cert.rs.

The cybersecurity month is celebrated throughout the world, while in Europe it was first observed in 2012, with the slogan „Cybersecurity is a common responsibility", uniting the European countries in their combat against cyber threats. Ever since, through its yearly events, this campaign has promoted not only a safer and more responsible online behaviour, but also introduced trainings and seminars aimed at educating end-users, preparing them for new and ever-emerging challenges.
