Securing the NFP Sector to Power Social Impact
WorkVentures Cyber offers a tailored and risk-based approach to help you secure your organisation that is aligned to industry standards. With a team of in-house experts and specialist cybersecurity partners, we identify common security gaps in the NFP sector. We offer affordable cyber assessments and managed services tailored to the needs of for-purpose organisations.
We understand the unique needs of NFPs, and we work with each partner to find the right balance between budget, organisational risk profile, and the current state of play.
What we’re seeing across the sector
Having worked with a range of organisations, we’ve identified several consistent themes at the leadership level.
Many organisations feel they are mostly covered, but don’t have full visibility of where their real exposure sits
- Responsibility
Cyber responsibility often sits within IT, but gaps tend to appear across people, process, and day-to-day operations
- Understanding Targets
Many NFPs don’t see themselves as likely targets, despite increasing activity across the sector
- Governance
Expectations around protecting sensitive data are becoming more defined at a governance level
- Real Impacts
The biggest impact of an incident is often disruption to services, not just systems or cost
- Identifying Risk
Leadership teams are making decisions without a simple, clear view of risk
