Cyber Security Training For Charities & Not For Profit Organisations
The Information Commissioners Office (ICO) recommends regular cyber security training for all staff, yet the quality and cost of this often makes it prohibitive, especially for non-profits.
At Smartdesc, we offer Cyber Security Training and Data Protection e-Learning specifically for charities.
All the content is created by us, aligned to industry best practice, the GDPR standard, and context-specific to not-for-profits.
Our platform provides simple, easy to digest training, written specifically for the unique challenges and considerations around Cyber Security and Data Protection that charities in the UK face.
We include 3 core modules – all tailored to charities based in the UK:
Understand the importance of Information Security and learn what you should do at your organisation in the event of a security incident or if you receive a potential threat.
This course provides information on how UK Data Protection laws impact your charity or organisation and offers guidance on how to protect the valuable data you hold.
Fraudulent acts can seriously affect your charity or organisation both financially and reputationally. Understand common types of fraud and preventative controls to help defend against suspected and real acts of fraud.
The platform is customisable, allowing you to add your own content, mandate and report on use, and refreshed annually to ensure it is up to date with the latest regulations.
