Cybersecurity for Nonprofits: Key Strategies to Combat Phishing, Ransomware, and Email Threats

In this interview, we dive into the critical cybersecurity issues facing nonprofits, with special guest Joe Stocker, founder of Patriot Consulting, an expert in Microsoft security and compliance. Joe brings a wealth of knowledge from nearly two decades in the field, dedicated to protecting nonprofits that often operate with limited budgets and resources. Join us as we discuss how nonprofits can bolster their defenses against cyber threats like phishing, ransomware, and business email compromise, even without dedicated security teams or large budgets. 🔐 Why Cybersecurity is Crucial for Nonprofits Nonprofit organizations are second only to healthcare when it comes to being targeted by cybercriminals, yet they often lack the resources for dedicated cybersecurity. Joe highlights the top threats facing nonprofits and discusses affordable ways to harden your organization’s defenses using Microsoft’s built-in security tools, such as Defender for Office 365, automated attack disruption, and phishing-resistant authentication methods. 🔍 Topics Covered: Common Threats Facing Nonprofits Joe explains how nonprofits are particularly vulnerable to phishing and business email compromise, with attackers increasingly using sophisticated tactics like deep fakes and AI-driven impersonation. Joe outlines actionable steps nonprofits can take to protect against these threats by implementing Microsoft’s passkey authentication and other identity-protection tools. Affordable Security Solutions We cover several essential, low-cost strategies nonprofits can adopt within their Microsoft 365 tenant, such as enabling security defaults and baseline templates for email protection. Joe explains how simple changes, like turning on Windows Firewall or using Intune for endpoint security, can significantly reduce risks without costly third-party solutions. Pro Bono Security Services Every Friday, Patriot Consulting offers pro bono office hours for Microsoft Tech for Social Impact (TSI) clients, where nonprofits can speak directly with security experts to get advice tailored to their needs. Joe also shares his book, “Securing Microsoft 365,” along with free resources like training videos to help nonprofits become more resilient against cyberattacks. Defender for Office 365 and Training Programs Joe dives into the benefits of Microsoft Defender for Office 365’s security awareness training and phishing simulators, which help nonprofits prepare their teams to recognize threats. This training can make a huge difference by reinforcing a culture of security awareness that helps prevent breaches. Real-World Success Stories Hear impactful stories from Joe’s experience, including how a nonprofit was able to avoid a potentially disastrous ransomware attack simply by using Defender’s automated attack disruption. Joe shares best practices to help organizations learn from these cases, including setting up a “verbal passphrase” system to secure large wire transfers and prevent business email compromise. 🛡️ Key Takeaways: Phishing and Email Compromise: The top threats nonprofits face often start with email.
