About this event
With the nation on high alert, cybersecurity is an increasingly important issue for nonprofit organizations, but many organizations lack the resources and expertise to protect themselves. Nonprofit organizations are expected to secure critical data, including donor information, that can be exposed in an instant and devastate an organization if not appropriately protected and individuals within your organization have not been educated about cyber threats. With the number of attacks against nonprofit organizations has increased considerably over the past few years, many nonprofits are not prepared to deal with cyber threats.
