Umbrella Security 1.5

Umbrella provides a comprehensive platform for both digital and physical security resources, designed to assist in managing team security effectively on a budget.

Umbrella offers assistance in identifying and responding to threats encountered during work, communication, or travel. It furnishes users with straightforward instructions to minimize risks even when offline. Users can then implement these guidelines by utilizing provided checklists or creating customized ones. Plans can further be adjusted based on real-time threat notifications from reliable sources or by sharing incident forms with team members. Umbrella's secure infrastructure is particularly suited for NGOs and individuals in vulnerable situations, as it is sustained through grants and paid security training.
