Brand NEW free webinar! How small charities can secure their data.
Where do you start with information security when you don’t have an IT department, a security team, or even a budget for it?
Most small charities assume information security is complicated, technical, and written for somebody else – usually somebody much bigger. It isn’t. The ideas are straightforward, and you’re probably already doing more of it than you think. What’s often missing is a sensible order to do things in, and a way to explain it to your trustees.
Save your seat.
In this session, Mel and Kit from Relatable Security walk through a proportionate approach to building an information security programme. It’s based on a simple, easy to understand process for people who didn’t choose security as a career. Work out what information matters most, think honestly about what could go wrong with it, and choose protections that fit the risk. You wouldn’t build a bank vault to protect your family photos, and you don’t need one to protect your charity.
The session will also tackle some common questions small charities often ask: what should we be doing first, how do we report this to our board, and who’s responsible for what when a supplier or developer runs systems for us?
You’ll come away with:
• A simple way to work out what information your charity holds, and which of it matters most
• A starting point that’s proportionate to your size and resources
• A clear way to report information security to your board, so trustees can see progress and make decisions
• A better sense of where your responsibilities end and your suppliers’ begin
This session is aimed at charity CEOs and senior leaders, trustees, operations and finance leads, and anyone who’s had “data protection” or “IT” added to their job description and quietly wondered where to begin.
