‘See Something Suspicious Online? Homeland Security Wants to Know About It’
February 18th, 2016
Via: NextGov:
The Department of Homeland Security wants an extra $1 million next year to develop a public-service campaign designed to increase awareness of online threats. The new initiative will be modeled on the “If You See Something, Say Something� effort rolled out after the Sept. 11 attacks.
The new cyber PSA “will look to raise public and private sector awareness of cybersecurity and to emphasize the importance of cyber awareness and information safekeeping,� according to an explanation of the project in fiscal 2017 budget documents released last week.
DHS will work with state and local governments, law enforcement agencies, academic institutions and private sector companies as part of the campaign, according to budget documents.
The original “See Something, Say Something� first debuted in the New York City in 2002 in the aftermath of the 9/11 terror attacks to raise awareness of suspicious activity that could be related to terrorist activity.
