10:45 - 11:35

In today’s digitally connected world, cybersecurity is a critical concern for all organizations. However, non-profit organizations, often described as ‘target-rich and cyber-poor,’ face unique challenges due to their often project-driven business models, which often result in underinvestment in cybersecurity infrastructure. As cyber threats become increasingly sophisticated, nonprofits are left vulnerable, with significant risks to their data, funds, and reputations.

This session will explore the current state of cybersecurity within the non-profit sector, highlighting the vulnerabilities and threats these organizations face and ongoing efforts to bridge this gap, namely CyberSecure The Hague and Cyber Resilience for NGOs. 

This discussion will feature insights from leading experts and representatives from non-profit organizations, providing a comprehensive view of the current landscape and future directions for enhancing cybersecurity and resilience within the sector.  

Participants will have the opportunity to engage with panelists through a Q&A session, contributing to the ongoing dialogue on securing the digital future of nonprofits. This session promises to be a vital exchange of knowledge and experiences, aiming to strengthen the cybersecurity and resilience of non-profit organizations in The Hague and beyond.
