In an bid to put users on the fast track to cyber security, the companies have produced a series of quick tips and fixes billed as “digital lifehacks” available online throughout the Fall. Visitors to the site will also have access to exclusive deals from companies like Dell*, including the opportunity to win a Dell XPS 12 Ultrabook and complementary subscriptions to McAfee LiveSafe in the “#hackyourlife” sweepstakes. This year marks the 10th anniversary of National Cyber Security Month, a collaborative effort between government and the industry to help users stay safe online.
