Every year there is a theme for the Computer Security day. This year's theme is "Managing Risk". IT risk cannot be controlled  totally by deployment of technology. Technology has to be supported by Human efforts for IT Security to be effective.

 

With the increased networking , the spread of malware has also increased drastically. There are threats such as malicious or criminal actions, employee error, system failure, natural disaster, and lack of proper security infrastructure.Security is not the job of a single person or a group of persons. It is the responsibility of each and every one of us.Computer Security Day provides an opportunity  for information security professionals worldwide to raise awareness of computer- and network-related security issues among their users.
