What we are doing
The Dutch Institute for Vulnerability Disclosure (DIVD) has been proactively identifying and assessing non-governmental organizations (NGOs) for potential security vulnerabilities. Our team conducts thorough scans to detect any known weaknesses within these entities. Upon identifying vulnerabilities, we promptly notify and inform the affected organizations.
These notifications are dispatched in multiple phases. The initial phase addresses general vulnerabilities uncovered during our preliminary scanning operations. Subsequently, a more detailed, manual inspection is conducted to identify deeper, more complex issues. The findings from this rigorous analysis are communicated in a second wave of notifications. This methodical approach ensures that NGOs are well-informed and equipped to enhance their cybersecurity posture.
