October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month at Cemex. Your digital habits matter. Protecting Cemex’s digital environment is a shared responsibility.

Please remember to follow ‘Your Safe Cyber Top 10’ at all times, to ensure you continue to operate safely online.

• Log off / lock your keyboard when away from your computer.
