October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and we’re joining the global effort to help everyone   “Stay Safe Online.” This year, we’re highlighting the Core 4 simple steps everyone can take to protect themselves:

· Use strong passwords

· Turn on multifactor authentication

· Update your software

· Recognize and report scams

This year’s theme, “Stay Safe Online,” is a reminder that good cyber habits don’t have to be complicated or intimidating. Cybersecurity is achievable for everyone, and we’re here to support you in building confidence and awareness around the steps you can take to protect yourself and our organization.

Cybersecurity doesn’t have to be intimidating—small actions make a big impact. By focusing on simple, effective steps and creating a culture of shared responsibility, Midwest Electric is proud to contribute to the broader mission of building a more secure digital future.
