In recognition of Cybersecurity Awareness Month, California Attorney General Rob Bonta today provided consumers and businesses with tips on how to defend against cybersecurity threats. Recent high-profile cyberattacks serve as a reminder that cybersecurity requires ongoing attention. According to the Identity Theft Resources Center, the number of data breaches that have been publicly reported this year already exceeds the total for 2020. Whether you are an individual or a company that is required to protect the data of consumers or your clients, you play an important role in defending against cybersecurity threats.
