Domestic Violence Awareness Month

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Domestic violence can affect people of any age or background and can include physical, emotional, sexual, or financial abuse. It can also involve controlling behaviors that cause someone to feel afraid, isolated, or unsafe in a relationship.

Knowing the signs can help you recognize when someone may need support. Changes in behavior, increased isolation, unexplained injuries, or a partner controlling someone’s finances, communication, or daily activities can be signs of an unhealthy or abusive relationship.

Potomac

If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, support is available. MDOT employees can also access resources through MyMDCARES. Learning about available resources and knowing how to safely support someone can make a difference.

This October, we’re recognizing Cybersecurity Awareness Month!

Protecting your digital information starts with a few simple steps.

  • Use strong, unique passwords for your accounts. A trusted password manager can help you keep track of them and maintain access to important systems.
  • Add an extra layer of protection with multifactor authentication (MFA), such as an external security token or biometric login.
    Stay alert online. Cybercriminals often use deceptive emails, links, and offers to trick you into sharing personal information or granting access to your systems.
  • When in doubt, contact your IT department for guidance on keeping your systems and information secure.

A few extra precautions can help protect your data and keep MDOT’s systems secure.
