Cyber Security for Nonprofit Organisations

When your organisation provides a key lifeline for individuals and communities, a cyber-attack could have disastrous results. 

Overview

Given that the nonprofit sector is frequently regarded as an easy target by hackers, it is critical to manage and limit the risks to the sensitive data you store.

Every day, your company generates, manages, and saves a large amount of information on its employees, customers, and donors. This knowledge is one of your most valuable assets and a crucial component to properly serving your community.

However, phishing, ransomware, malicious insiders, and other forms of cybersecurity threats can cause substantial damage to your charity.  

Smaller charities are more vulnerable to cyberattacks since their defences are often weaker. Gridware can help your organisation to safeguard critical data in an ever-changing threat scenario.

KEY QUESTIONS

Key security questions for nonprofit leaders

COMPLIANCE

Cyber security compliance in the nonprofit industry

Many charities are under stress on multiple fronts as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to cause uncertainty. It required a quick transition to remote working as well as a re-evaluation of the systems and processes that had been in place for many years.

This abrupt transition has exposed the nonprofit industry, placing large risk on compliance as well as data and intellectual property security.

We can assist you in enhancing your data and information security to the degree required to comply with the PCI DSS and other local and international security requirements.
