Data Privacy Day

January 28 is Data Privacy Day (DPD), an annual international effort to promote the importance of data privacy. DPD is sponsored in the United States by the National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA) with the theme, Respecting Privacy, Safeguarding Data, and Enabling Trust.

The NCSA Stay Safe Online website features a recording of the Data Privacy Day 2018 – Live From LinkedIn event, which includes presentations on privacy management, location tracking, and business and privacy. NCCIC/US-CERT encourages users and administrators to review basic privacy tips from Stay Safe Online, and related resources from NCCIC/US-CERT:

• Safeguarding Your Data,
• Protecting Your Privacy,
• Avoiding Social Engineering and Phishing Attacks, and
• Preventing and Responding to Identity Theft.
