 I'm Adam Cranfield with Cal OES. This week, as Cal OES continues to recognize October as Cyber Security Month, it's important to remember these cybersecurity best practices. Use strong passwords, enable multi-factor authentication when possible, and use antivirus software. Through the California Cyber Security Integration Center, Cal OES works with partners in local, state, and federal governments to protect the state's online presence. Also, as temperatures start to cool and wetter weather arrives, Cal OES recognized this week as Flood Preparedness Week. In partnership with the Department of Water Resources, this is a great reminder to prepare your families in case of storms that cause flooding. Make sure you have a go-bag ready in case you're told to evacuate. Ensure the storm drains in your neighborhood are clear of debris. Never drive or walk through flooded areas when in doubt, turn around. Finally, Cal OES hosted the Executive Fellows within the Capital Fellows Program from Sacramento State University. This nationally recognized public policy fellowship places skilled people within California's Executive Branch to integrate them with high-level government work, experience with academic and professional development.
