Cyber criminals are taking full advantage of the opportunity to attack under-protected organizations when they are most vulnerable. The FBI reports an average of 3,000 - 4,000 cybercrimes per day since the start of the pandemic -- an astonishing increase from the average of 1,000, pre-COVID-19. To help keep your foundation and grantee partners safe from cyber attacks and equipped to work from home for the long-term, we've organized a comprehensive webinar event. 

In this session we'll hear from Hesham Tamraz, Director of Technology and the Geraldine R. Dodge Foundation & Ann Puckett, IT Manager at the Grands Rapid Community Foundation. Speakers will share the essential components of a robust cybersecurity plan during COVID-19, including staff training, cybersecurity policies for working from the office or from home, and tools for secure virtual communication and collaboration.
