Cybersecurity Essentials for Nonprofits

We’ve all heard about devastating cyberattacks – and nonprofits are not immune. In fact, small to medium-sized nonprofit organizations are specifically susceptible due to their lack of cybersecurity policies and staff training. The good news: there are lots of things you can do to protect your organization, even if you’re not a security expert. This 3-session course provides a basic understanding of how cyberattacks happen, how to prevent them, and practical tips that prepare you to respond in case you do experience a breach.
