Activists

1. Surveillance Against Personal Freedom

​​

​

Surveillance threatens an activist’s personal freedom and ability to campaign without fear.

​

Constant monitoring exposes them to potential retaliation or intimidation, limiting their ability to speak out freely.

 

This can also reveal strategic plans, endangering the success of their cause and the safety of their allies.

​​

2. Loss of Sensitive Information

​

The loss of personal or movement-related information through cyberattacks can seriously harm both the activist and their cause.

​

If private communications are leaked, it can lead to numerous repercussions, harassment, or suppression of youractivism, putting your social mission at risk.

​

3. Reputational Harm

​

Cyberattacks targeting activists can result in the sabotage and manipulation of their personal reputation.

​

Hackers may spread disinformation, fabricate scandals, or manipulate private communications, damaging their credibility.

 

This undermines your leadership and your ability to rally support for your cause, disallowing you from well founded activism.

 

4. Protection of Personal Life

​

Cybersecurity is essential for activists to protect their personal life from harmful intrusions.

​

Hacking attempts can expose private details (known as DOXXING), leading to threats, blackmail, or public harassment.

 

This not only endangers yourr personal safety but also compromises their ability to focus on your activism.

 

5. Protection From Targeted Harassment

​

Activists are often subject to targeted harassment campaigns designed to intimidate or silence them.

​

Cybersecurity is vital to shield activists from doxxing, hacking, and other forms of digital harassment.

 

These attacks can disrupt their work, harm their mental well-being, and divert attention from their cause, weakening the impact of their activism.
