Training on improved cybersecurity for civil society organizations

byФондација Метаморфозис

On April 9, 2025, the Metamorphosis Foundation conducted a one-day training on improved cybersecurity for civil society organizations. A dozen representatives of civil society organizations active in working with vulnerable groups of citizens were introduced to the term digital fingerprint, why antivirus protection is important, what a good password is, how to use a password manager, and numerous practical tips for increasing cybersecurity and practicing cyber hygiene.

The training is part of the project “CyberShield: Empowered Citizens for Cyber ​​Resilience”. Three trainings are planned within the project, as well as podcasts and videos to increase public awareness and understanding of the importance of cybersecurity. The goal of the project is to highlight the issues of proper and regular cyber hygiene and effective handling of cyber threats (phishing, social engineering, malware, online disinformation, personal data theft, etc.) as well as to ensure that these topics receive the necessary attention, resources and joint efforts needed for effective solutions.

The project “CyberShield: Empowered Citizens for Cyber Resilience” is supported by the National Interventions grant for the regional project “SMART Balkans—Civil Society for Shared Society in the Western Balkans” implemented by Centar za promociju civilnog društva (CPCD) (Center for Civil Society Promotion), Center for Research and Policy Making (CRPM) and the Institute for Democracy and Mediation (IDM), and financially supported by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Norway.
