The Security Program for Nonprofits is a set of Microsoft security offerings designed specifically to help nonprofit organizations detect, prevent, and monitor security risks. Nonprofits are increasingly targeted by cyberattacks that can compromise privacy, expose sensitive data, and erode donor trust. Because many nonprofits prioritize mission delivery over IT investment, they can be more vulnerable to these threats. This program, led by Microsoft’s Tech for Social Impact team, is intended to help nonprofits strengthen their security posture in a practical, step-by-step way. It brings together tools, assessments, and training so your organization can: - Proactively identify security risks - Put protections in place to reduce the likelihood and impact of attacks - Monitor ongoing threats and respond more effectively In short, it’s a focused way for nonprofits to reimagine how they manage cybersecurity without losing sight of their mission.

The Security Program for Nonprofits combines several Microsoft security resources tailored to nonprofit needs. Key elements include: 1. **Microsoft’s security approach for nonprofits** You’ll learn how Microsoft thinks about nonprofit security end-to-end—covering identity, devices, data, apps, and infrastructure—so you can align your own security journey with proven practices. 2. **Microsoft AccountGuard for Nonprofits** AccountGuard is a service focused on protecting your organization from sophisticated cyberthreats. For eligible nonprofits, it provides: - Threat detection and notifications related to your organizational accounts - Guidance on how to respond when threats are identified 3. **Free security assessments** These assessments help you understand your current security posture, identify gaps, and prioritize next steps. They are designed to give you a clear, practical view of where you stand and what to improve. 4. **Training pathways and best practices** The program offers training pathways to build your team’s security skills over time. In the 30‑minute interactive session with Justin Spelhaug, Microsoft VP for Tech for Social Impact, you’ll also hear from sector leaders who share their cybersecurity best practices and lessons learned. Together, these components help your nonprofit move from reactive security to a more proactive, structured approach that supports both day‑to‑day operations and long‑term resilience.
