Charity and Non-Profit

Functioning within a sector that's frequently perceived as a soft target by cybercriminals, are you taking appropriate measures to safeguard your organization?

>_ Overview

Cyber security in charity and non-profit sector

Operating an organization that serves as a vital lifeline for individuals and communities, the consequences of a cyber-attack could be devastating. As the third sector is often seen as a soft target by cybercriminals, it is crucial to manage and mitigate the risks associated with the sensitive data in your custody.

 

Nonprofit organizations harbor a substantial amount of sensitive information, making them an ideal target for cybercriminals. If your nonprofit accepts credit and debit card payments for donations or sells products and/or services on your website, there is an inherent risk associated with the potential theft of that information.

 

Simultaneously, many nonprofits hold and transmit personally identifiable information (PII) about individuals who receive services through the organization. Depending on the type of information and the kind of activities the nonprofit is involved in, securing this information is critical and can sometimes be a matter of personal safety for individuals globally.
