Oasis Technology today announced that they have become a Champion of National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM) 2015. Oasis Technology will be joining a growing global effort among colleges and universities, businesses, government agencies, associations, nonprofit organizations and individuals to promote online safety awareness.

As an official Champion, Oasis Technology recognizes our commitment to cybersecurity and online safety.
“The Titan Intrusion Prevention system identifies and allows us to analyze what attacks have been made on your system and helps clients to ensure security for their systems”- George Baldonado, CEO of Oasis Technology, Inc.
Coordinated and led by the National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA) and the Department of Homeland Security, NCSAM has grown exponentially since its inception, reaching consumers, small and medium-sized businesses, corporations, educational institutions and young people across the nation and internationally. This year marks the 12th year of NCSAM.
“The Champion Program is a vital part of making National Cyber Security Awareness Month a success each year,” said Michael Kaiser, executive director of the National Cyber Security Alliance. “We are thankful to our 2015 Champion organizations for their support and commitment to our shared responsibility of promoting cyber security and online safety awareness.”
