October marks European Cyber Security Month (ECSM) – an annual EU campaign that promotes cybersecurity and provides accurate online security information by sharing good practices. Every year in October, hundreds of activities take place across Europe, such as conferences, workshops, training and webinars, to promote digital security.

Organisers of ECSM provide the knowledge and tools to promote the safer use of the internet for all EU citizens. Since 2012, the ECSM has reached its key priorities by bringing together parties from across Europe under the slogan ‘Cybersecurity is a Shared Responsibility’ to unite against cyber threats.

ECSM 2020 launches with the motto of ‘Think Before U Click’. The month is split into two themes – the first two weeks focus on ‘cyber scams’ and the second on ‘digital skills’.

Kicking off the month with ‘cyber scams’, this theme provided insights on current and potential cyber threats to help businesses and individuals minimise risk. COVID-19 has led to an increase in e-commerce and online payments, which hackers have used to their advantage. The key message of this theme encourages users to have a heightened awareness of cyber scams when conducting online transactions.

The second theme, ‘digital skills’, presents educational activities that inform on internet security. COVID-19 has increased the digitalisation of everyday life, which requires people to be on top of digital trends to remain safe online. The theme covers e-privacy matters such as data protection, cyber bullying and cyber stalking.

Today’s the day – 32 countries from all over the world are about to compete in one of the most renowned tournaments on the planet. Entering for Franklin Fitch this year will be Team #Germany, Team #England, Team #Wales and Team #Austria. “4 Locations?!”, you say? – Yes, that’s correct! We’ve grown a lot over the last few years not just in the number of consultants, but also in experience, market knowledge, internationality, and languages we speak. (9. We speak 9 languages 😊: German, English, Russian, Arabic, Spanish, French, Swedish, Greek and Welsh of course!)

Since we started in 2011, we have used the international football tournaments (previous UEFA Euros and FIFA World Cups) for team motivational purposes. And since the official Panini FIFA World Cup Collector’s Sticker Albums have always played a big role in this, we wanted to honour this by changing our profile pictures for the duration of the FIFA Football World Cup in Russia. Let us know what you think!
