CyberSafe CSO Nepal
A concept for strengthening everyday digital resilience in Nepal's civil-society sector.
The problem
Smaller organizations may manage sensitive work without dedicated security staff or practical support.
Why it matters
A preventable account or data compromise can disrupt services and put communities, staff and partners at risk.
What we know
- Basic controls such as MFA and secure recovery practices can matter.
- Recommendations must fit an organization's actual capacity.
What we don’t know yet
- What risks organizations prioritize themselves?
- Which assessment can be safe and proportionate?
- What support model leads to sustained adoption?
Our approach
- 01
Listen to organizations before designing an assessment.
- 02
Define a minimal, practical security baseline.
- 03
Plan a safeguarded pilot with expert review.
