CISA Safe Holiday Online Shopping Campaign

With more Americans expected to shop online this holiday season due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has launched a public awareness initiative to inform consumers of common risks and encourage basic cybersecurity practices. Over the course of the next month, it plans to share safety information for consumers to keep in mind as they navigate the world-wide web. As part of this, CISA’s “Holiday Online Shopping” website includes easy-to-follow safety tips for online shopping, and additional resources to promote healthy shopping practices. The tips included with the launch include check your devices, shop through trusted retailers, and use safe methods for purchases. Access the webpage at CISA.
