Welcome to the Citizen Clinic Cybersecurity Education Center
The Citizen Clinic is a public interest cybersecurity clinic at the University of California, Berkeley. We support the capacity of politically targeted organizations to defend themselves against online threats. Building off the Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity’s research on the ecosystem of organizations providing technical assistance to civil society, the clinic supports multidisciplinary teams of students to assess threats to targeted organizations, recommend risk-appropriate mitigations, and work collaboratively with clients to implement new policies and technical controls that enhance their cybersecurity.

The Citizen Clinic Cybersecurity Education Center is designed to share basic cybersecurity resources for civil society organizations, and to inform other academic institutions that may be interested in adopting the clinic model.
