2024 Updated Playbook on Cybersecurity Readiness for Nonprofits – Download coming soon!

Join CTO Matthew Eshleman for the release of our newly updated Playbook on Cybersecurity Readiness for Nonprofits.

Learn the Community IT approach to cybersecurity and how even small changes will protect your organization against threats big and small.

Matt shares completely updated advice on security improvements that provide protection against the most common attacks. You will learn about AI and cybersecurity, best practices in staff training, how to qualify for cyber insurance, and why you need written IT documentation and governance policies.

With the rise of automated and realistic AI tools and more sophisticated methods of identity and email verification, your nonprofit can’t afford not to prioritize cybersecurity. It may be difficult to qualify for business insurance if you don’t complete certain checklists of cybersecurity precautions. But if you don’t know where to start, it can be tempting to delay indefinitely.

This Playbook gives you a simple structure to understand how to think about cybersecurity risks and costs for your nonprofit. Matt’s presentation gives you tips you can put in place quickly and train your staff on immediately. You can download the new Playbook for free soon. We’re just putting the finishing touches on it.

This webinar is appropriate for nonprofit executives, managers, accounting, development, and nonprofit IT personnel – and as with all our webinars, it is appropriate for a varied audience.

Community IT is proudly vendor-agnostic and our webinars cover a range of topics and discussions. Webinars are never a sales pitch, always a way to share our knowledge with our community.
