Director, Membership

Who We Are NGO-ISAC is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that strengthens the security of U.S.-based nonprofits. Many civil society organizations run on limited security resources, and the people defending them often work alone. We bring nonprofits together in a community where they share information, learn from each other, and stay ahead of emerging threats. Together we help secure civil society against the threats that try to disrupt its essential work.
