Consolidated Communications Educates Consumers during Cybersecurity Awareness Month

Company helps customers, employees and communities stay safer online

Consolidated Communications (NASDAQ: CNSL) a leading broadband and business communications provider, is championing Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a growing global effort to promote the awareness of online safety and privacy in October. The Cybersecurity Awareness Month Champions Program is a collaborative effort among businesses, government agencies, colleges and universities, associations, nonprofit organizations and individuals committed to the Cybersecurity Awareness Month theme of ‘Do Your Part. #BeCyberSmart.’

“As Consolidated brings reliable high-speed internet to millions of homes throughout our service area, we are committed to helping people protect themselves online,” said Aaron Reason, senior director of Network Security at Consolidated. “We take protecting our networks and our customers very seriously. We spend every minute of every day focused on keeping our customers connected, and working to educate and empower our employees, our customers and our communities in safe online practices.”

More than ever before, technology plays a part in almost everything we do. Connected devices have been woven into society as an integral part of how people communicate and access services essential to their well-being. Despite these great advances in technology and the conveniences this provides, recent events have demonstrated how quickly our lives and businesses can be disrupted when cyber criminals and adversaries use technology to do harm.

Throughout Cybersecurity Awareness Month, Consolidated will share actionable guidance and best practices you can take to protect yourself while we spend more of our lives online. Visit Consolidated’s Residential Blog for weekly updates, and consolidated.com/StaySafeOnline for simple ways to secure your interconnected world.

Now in its 18th year, Cybersecurity Awareness Month continues to build momentum and impact with the ultimate goal of providing everyone with the information they need to stay safer and more secure online. Consolidated Communications is proud to support this expansive online safety awareness and education initiative which is co-led by the National Cyber Security Alliance and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Agency (CISA) of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
