11 Apr 2018 - 11:49 by michelle.foster

The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has launched its first cyber security guidance for the charity sector. There are almost 200,000 charities registered in the UK and devious tricks to defraud small charities through online attacks have been exposed. A cyber threat assessment has been conducted to outline how their valuable funds, supporter details and information on beneficiaries are being targeted. National Cyber Security Centre

The NCSC have provided guidance about how to defend against possible risks and outline easy and low-cost steps to protect from attacks. They have produced a Small Charity Guide which includes expert advice that is particularly useful for small organisations on backing-up data, using strong passwords, protecting against malware, keeping devices safe and avoiding phishing attacks.
