[Resource] A Cybersecurity On-Ramp for the Settlement Sector
In early 2023, the Canadian Centre for Nonprofit Digital Resilience released a report entitled Building the Cybersecurity and Resilience of Canada’s Nonprofit Sector: A Vision and Strategy for the Sector. The report captured the knowledge and insights of a working group convened to discuss cybersecurity in the nonprofit sector and propose solutions to identified challenges. It presented the following vision: Every Canadian nonprofit is empowered to securely meet its mission and protect the organization and its beneficiaries from cyber threats. The report recommended a sector-wide strategy to address cybersecurity challenges. One of the strategy’s objectives was that nonprofits have “an easy on-ramp to cybersecurity, beginning with a relevant risk assessment that prioritizes preventive, focused action at different maturity levels.”
