    Berry College has participated in Cybersecurity Awareness Month, formerly known as National Cyber Security Awareness Month since 2014.

    The Have I Been Pwned website you visited in the last set of questions is run by Troy Hunt, a Microsoft Regional Director and MVP for Developer Security. He doesn't work for Microsoft, but they recognize his contributions to the security community with these titles. He has his own website where he does a weekly update, posts his upcoming speaking engagements, and has other information, generally about him, available. In what country does Troy live?

    The Berry College Office of Information Technology (OIT) is also actively encouraging the community to adopt a password manager and use it to manage all of their various accounts. Password managers enable users to use long, hard to crack, and unique passwords for every account they have. In an article on the website Make Use Of (makeuseof.com) titled "The Best Password Managers for Every Occasion" in the section about "Other ways to secure your accounts" what is the first option mentioned?
