NCMS, Inc. - The Society of Industrial Security Professionals

The purpose of the Society is to advance the practice of industrial security. As the Society has grown over the years, its focus has also expanded.

Today, the Society has over 6,000 members in the United States and overseas including representatives from NATO countries. Within the U.S., members come from the Department of Energy, Department of Defense, Department of State, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Federal Bureau of Investigation, National Security Agency, General Accounting Office--virtually every Federal agency that deals with classification--and from the civilian contractors who work with these agencies. NCMS now provides professional development for its members in the field of classification management, information security, personnel security, computer security, operations security (OPSEC), facility security, and technology security.

Software updates are easy to put off, but every delay can leave the door open for cybercriminals.

During Cybersecurity Awareness Month, NCMS is reminding our community that keeping devices, applications, and operating systems up to date is one of the simplest ways to strengthen your cybersecurity.

Updates often include critical security patches that address known vulnerabilities. When that notification appears, don’t keep clicking “Remind me later.” Install updates promptly and enable automatic updates whenever possible.

Don’t give cybercriminals an easy meal. Keep your software updated and your defenses strong.

: Turn On Multifactor Authentication (MFA)

MFA requires an additional verification step beyond your password, making it much harder for someone to access your account even if your credentials are compromised.

Whenever MFA is available, turn it on—especially for email, financial accounts, work systems, and other accounts containing sensitive information.

This Cybersecurity Awareness Month, strengthen your defenses with one simple step: enable MFA.
