• Do you know what Phishing is?
• Did you know that the padlock icon on a website doesn't guarantee that a retailer is legitimate/reputable or that their website is secure?
• Do you store your passwords safely?
• How secure is your smartphone/tablet device?

Have you thought about the risks to your charity or group if you were hacked, phished or your online presence was attacked in some way?

Sometimes it's easy to assume that charities and community groups are either too small or too 'nice' to be targeted, but we all know how easy it is for a fraudulent invoice to get through the system or for a link to accidentally be clicked.

Now that we are online more than ever, it's becoming more and more important to be aware of the potential risks and what steps you can take to minimise them.

About this training

During this short workshop we will discuss:

• What kind of cyber attacks you could encounter and their impact
• Simple steps to protect yourself from attacks
• What you should do in the event of a cyber attack

The session will take place online and is open to small charities, community interest companies and other registered non-profits in Cornwall.
