Cyber Security Resilience Impact Round: That's a wrap!

Over the past 20 years we've been helping purpose-driven organisations in the not-for-profit sector maximise their technology and telco. To provide even more support to the NFP community we expanded the scope of our Impact Program, with each round offering a range of pro bono support, including in-person workshops, webinars, comprehensive resources and 1:1 support. 

Our most recent round focused on Cyber Security Resilience and was an initiative designed to support not-for-profit organisations by empowering them with the knowledge needed to navigate the complex landscape of cybersecurity with confidence and resilience.

At a glance

We've achieved a lot this round, here are some of the highlights:

Cyber security is crucial for NFPs to safeguard sensitive information and maintain trust with stakeholders. A breach in cyber security could result in financial loss, reputational damage, and potential legal liabilities, ultimately hindering the organisation's ability to fulfil its mission effectively.

NFPs are among the most vulnerable organisations when it comes to cyber security due to a combination of limited resources, outdated technology, lack of cybersecurity expertise and valuable data. Our goal for this round was to help as many NFPs as possible take a proactive and strategic approach to cyber security. 

What we offered

Key learnings

With over 28 hours of 1:1 pro bono workshops run as part of our last impact round, our team have collated the top cyber security concerns they've found NFPs facing and offer low, or no cost implementation solutions. 

Key areas of concern include:

• A lack of Cyber security policy

• Regularly updating software

• Establishing access control

• Conducting regular cyber security training

• Securing remote work
