If you get an email asking about your cybersecurity opinions at work, it may not be spam! The Office of Personnel Management is working with the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education to conduct a survey now through October 11th. OPM says if you receive an email inviting you to participate in this survey and you are not currently performing cybersecurity work, go to the first page of the survey and click “no” to the first question.
