Building Digital Trust for a Community Nonprofit
Client: Community-based nonprofit serving at-risk youth, Oʻahu
The organization faced a rise in cyber-fraud attempts targeting donor and participant data, with no formal cybersecurity policies or staff training in place.
Reckless Technologies conducted a comprehensive Cybersecurity and Digital Wellness Assessment, focusing on governance practices, cloud data management, and user awareness.
We established clear data-handling procedures, migrated sensitive files to a secure cloud environment with multi-factor authentication, and trained all staff on phishing and social engineering defenses.
The nonprofit experienced zero data-loss incidents over 12 months, achieved 100% staff participation in cybersecurity awareness training, and restored donor confidence.
Cybersecurity is now embedded in the organization’s operations, with Reckless Technologies providing quarterly advisory sessions as part of its annual compliance and board-level risk oversight strategy.
Advancing Cyber Readiness for a Growing Business
Client: Local construction and engineering firm
The firm needed to meet cyber-insurance requirements and qualify for government contracts but lacked a formal cybersecurity risk management framework.
Reckless Technologies conducted a baseline assessment using the NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), mapping existing tools, controls, and policies to identify gaps and priorities.
We developed a comprehensive incident response plan, implemented data backup and encryption policies, and trained key personnel on essential security procedures.
The firm achieved compliance with cyber-insurance controls, secured a 15% reduction in insurance premiums, and won new state contracts requiring demonstrated cyber readiness.
Reckless Technologies continues to support the organization through ongoing vCISO advisory services, ensuring policies remain current and compliance is continuously monitored.
