Cyber Secure the Hague

Free Cybersecurity Tools and Advice for NGOs

With over 500 cyberattacks on NGOs since 2016, it’s more important than ever to make your NGO cyber resilient. Threats to NGOs include targeting by foreign governments and cyber criminals. While the City of The Hague provides cybersecurity assistance to international organisations, extending these resources to all local NGOs is challenging. To meet this need, the CyberPeace Institute (CPI), Dutch Institute For Vulnerability Disclosure (DIVD), CSIRT.global and The Hague Humanity Hub are all joining forces to help more NGOs become cyber secure.
