MN Service Cooperative Cyber Insurance Program
BrightWorks partners with Hausmann Group. The private information you store isn’t the only thing at risk with a cyber attack; your financial outlook and the public’s trust in you is on the line as well. This program helps address the two most significant aspects of a cyber-security plan: pre-breach mitigation and post-breach response.
Synergy & Leadership Exchange
BrightWorks partners with Synergy & Leadership Exchange, a non-profit organization dedicated to fostering collaboration to advance the development of ethical citizens, providing educational resources, and celebrating achievement in Minnesota schools, businesses, and communities. Reach for the Stars is a free resource guide published annually in August that contains high-quality academic enrichment programs and activities around the state.
