Community IT Innovators’ CTO and Cybersecurity expert Matt Eshleman discussed cybersecurity in a new webinar conversation hosted by Art Taylor with Give.org, the BBB Wise Giving Alliance.

October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month and we want you and your charity to be on top of the latest cautions when it comes to the security of your data and websites. Only 20 percent of nonprofits report that they have a cyberattack policy in place. In this discussion with Matt Eshleman, Chief Technology Officer at Community IT, multiple nonprofit staff and executives had their questions answered about the current state of cybersecurity and practical steps their charitable organizations should be taking to protect themselves.

In part 1, Matt discusses a framework for cybersecurity policies and ways to focus on your people first - training and policies - before investing in any new technology products or platforms that promise cybersecurity. There are lots of fancy technologies out there, but if you don't invest in training and maintaining staff skills, no technology will save you from scams.

As with all our presentations, this webinar on cybersecurity for your nonprofit charity is appropriate for an audience of varied IT experience. 

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.
