The Argentine Ministry of Security Promotes a Federal Campaign to Raise Awareness on Cybersecurity and Cybercrime Prevention

In the context of the "Federal Plan for the Prevention of Technological Crimes (2021 - 2024)", the Ministry of Security signed a collaboration agreement with STOP. THINK. CONNECT. Messaging Convention Inc. Through this agreement, the Ministry adhered to the global cybersecurity awareness campaign "STOP. THINK. CONNECT." created in 2010 by the Anti-Phishing Working Group (APWG) and the National Cyber Security Alliance (NCSA), in association with the United States. Over 850 public and private sector organizations are currently members of the campaign.

The Argentine Ministry of Security will lead and coordinate the Federal Campaign "PARA. PIENSA. CONECTATE. Argentina" (Federal Public Awareness Campaign on Cybersecurity and Cybercrime Prevention) to raise awareness of the risks and threats associated with the use of the Internet and technologies, through activities and studies related to citizen cybersecurity and cybercrime prevention.

To this end, the Ministry of Security issued Resolution No. 731/2022, approving a Framework Agreement template and a template to adhere to the Federal Public Awareness Campaign on Cybersecurity and Cybercrime Prevention. The Ministry also invited the provinces and the City of Buenos Aires to join the campaign.
