Cybercrime Support Network and NordVPN Announce New Leadership Sponsorship
ANN ARBOR, Mich., March 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The national voice of cybercrime victims, Cybercrime Support Network (CSN), is pleased to announce a new leadership sponsorship with the world's most advanced VPN service provider, NordVPN. With this sponsorship, CSN can continue to give a voice to cybercrime victims and to work toward accomplishing the organization's mission of bringing together national partners to support cybercrime victims.
The impact of an online scam or attack can be devastating, and knowing where to go for help can be confusing. Over a billion people's data was compromised in 2018, increasing the growing need for cybercrime victim support. Millions of American consumers and small businesses are affected by cybercrime each year and struggle to find resources to help report and respond to the incident. As a solution, CSN launched Phase 1 of FraudSupport.org in November 2018, as a platform to provide guidance on where to go and what to do after a cybercrime has occurred.
The corporate sponsorship of NordVPN is a natural fit with CSN's mission to help cybercrime victims not only report and recover after an incident but to learn about valuable tools that will reinforce their cybersecurity to help prevent revictimization. "As a NordVPN user myself, I reached out to them to form a partnership knowing the quality of the product," said CSN's CEO and President Kristin Judge. "For anyone who uses public Wi-Fi in a hotel, airport, coffee shop or school, protecting your data with a strong virtual private network (VPN) is a critical step to improve account security. We are thankful for NordVPN's support of CSN's work to serve cybercrime victims."
"At NordVPN we understand how important it is to leverage new digital possibilities and personal cybersecurity needs. Even if cyber-threats cannot be prevented completely, there are things people can do to make their digital life safer," says Marty P. Kamden, CMO at NordVPN. "We are thrilled to support the Cybercrime Support Network and we hope this partnership will help to elevate the conversation around digital threats and possible solutions. One of the best ways to empower people is to educate them on how they can mitigate cyber risks themselves."
