Abstract

Most non-profits accumulate and store sensitive and vital business information digitally and are becoming increasingly reliant on technology; they are therefore more at risk for cyber-attacks (Goldernberg, 2013). Despite technical cybersecurity efforts, the employee remains the most vulnerable target for cyber-criminals (Hu, Dinev, Hart, & Cooke, 2012). Educating employees through cybersecurity awareness programs ultimately contributes to an organization’s cybersecurity efforts (Kolb & Abdullah, 2009). This annotated bibliography presents literature about common cybersecurity vulnerabilities, stakeholders, and training.
