Donations to the CyberPeace Institute are used to help our researchers to analyse the impact of cyberattacks on critical sectors, such as attacks on hospitals, and to bring cybersecurity support and training to NGOs. Your support also enables the Institute to raise awareness of the gaps in international laws and norms in cybersecurity and advocate for cyberpeace.
The CyberPeace Institute does not assist individual victims of cyberattacks. We assist NGOs working in critical sectors where the impact of cyberattacks can impact whole communities. When we are approached by individuals requesting help or support, we endeavour to propose other organizations that may be able to help.
