IT Security
Adoption of IT has become more popular for NGOs in Hong Kong to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of their operations as well as to provide better services to their stakeholders in the welfare sector. With more IT systems and solutions in place, particularly those services implemented over the Internet, protection of IT systems as well as data especially personal data stored are major concerns. IT security has become an integral part of IT system development and an on-going natural process for the IT systems in use that need attention to the NGOs.
Data Security
In additional, NGOs in Hong Kong also use various channels to collect data, and data security has become increasingly crucial for business and organisations, particularly in terms of safeguarding the security of personal data. Here are some reference information and assessment tool provided by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD):
