Cybersecurity: Cybersecurity Awareness Month

Cyber threats continually evolve and pose risks to our customers and business partners, our communities and our company. Travelers takes a holistic approach to cybersecurity, which includes a comprehensive awareness initiative, to foster safe cyber behaviors.

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, a collaborative industry- and government-led effort to continue raising awareness around the importance of cybersecurity. Each year, Travelers initiates a campaign to highlight critical cyber-related risks, as well as actions employees can take to safeguard Travelers’ and our customers’ information.

In 2025, we launched our Be CyberWise: Care. Protect. Together. campaign to cultivate employee understanding of how our commitment to cybersecurity is demonstrated through simple steps that help protect what matters most to our customers and stakeholders and to emphasize that securing our data and systems takes all of us working together. The campaign’s engagement activities included physical and digital signage, an innovative training module showcasing evolving cyberattacks along with guidance, interactive security polls and quizzes, personal cyber safety videos and tips, and stories spotlighting cross-company security awareness groups. Collectively, these efforts created a comprehensive awareness campaign to empower employee cyber vigilance.

In 2025, the Travelers Institute, the public policy division of Travelers, marked Cybersecurity Awareness Month with a cybersecurity symposium in Tulsa, Oklahoma, as part of its Cyber: Prepare, Prevent, Mitigate, Restore^® series. This in-person program convened business and public sector leaders alongside independent insurance agents and brokers and provided them with tools and practical, actionable advice to bolster their cyber hygiene. The audience heard from a Travelers cybersecurity expert and a speaker from a partner organization that specializes in legal matters pertaining to the cybersecurity space.

The Travelers Institute also hosted a webinar, part of the Wednesdays with Woodward^® series, that provided a global perspective on the cyber threat landscape, an overview of our national cyber defenses and practical advice that can help improve everyone’s cyber resilience. The webinar featured Jeff Greene, former Executive Assistant Director for Cybersecurity at the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), former Chief of Cyber Response and Policy on the National Security Council and a Distinguished Fellow at the Aspen Institute.
