Join us for our annual Cyber Smart Week campaign in October.

This year’s campaign will continue to raise the importance of cyber security and help New Zealanders to be more secure and resilient online.

We want to encourage New Zealanders to treat online security like the seatbelt in their car: a quick and easy action that can save them if something goes wrong.

  • 63%
    of New Zealanders agree that the actions they take can prevent cyber attacks.
  • 70%
    of people who saw the EXPOSED campaign took action.
