The Campaign’s PSA Challenge, launched in November 2010 as part of the National Cybersecurity Awareness Campaign, called on individuals, non-profit organizations and corporations to create and submit short video PSAs encouraging their fellow citizens to be safe and secure online.
The three winning PSAs promote awareness among teens, young adults and parents on how to protect against cyber bullying, cyber predators, and other criminal activity online. They include submissions from students at Dakota State University, the non-profit organization Stop Child Predators, and Microsoft Corporation.
