Background
As part of its core strategy, the company’s management needed a dedicated website that will provide more information about current cyber security threats and trends for charity organizations and most importantly, serve as a platform to connect third sector organizations with cyber security professional volunteers. The required website was meant to be simple and easy to manage from the backend without much technical skills needed. It was also required to demonstrate, at a basic level, how the volunteer will be engaged by charity organizations in need of such services. It should also sit on the parent company’s website as part of its services.
