ABOUT
In a digital world where technology moves fast, awareness must be raised about the cybersecurity of vulnerable people and the best interest regarding their engagement with the digital space.
A vulnerable person is someone whose cognitive, physical, sensory, or socioeconomic circumstances, like children, older adults, or those with disabilities, intersect with complex digital environments that may not be inclusive.
Digital technologies can empower vulnerable individuals, yet these security tools and safeguarding rules also weren't designed with them in mind, which can expose or lock these people out.
This is where Mothership SAFETY can help fill in the gap.

THE NUMBERS DON'T LIE.
INCLUSIVE CYBERSECURITY
Most security standards assume you can juggle lots of passwords, or spot fake emails at a glance.
Traditional safety measures deal with risk by taking access away. Both leave people out, and cutting someone off doesn't keep them safe. It leaves them isolated and less able to spot a real problem.
Mothership Safety takes an inclusive shift towards cybersecurity practices to reduce this barrier:
Simpler sign-ins: Passkeys, fingerprints and PINs in place of riskier password measures.
Digital literacy tools Simple steps for independently judging whether information is genuine.
Online Independence Helping people make their own decisions, including taking sensible risks.
Accessible systems: Sound/visual feedback, plain-language alerts, and secure tools.
No-blame environment: Raise concern without the worry of punishment or confiscation.
Mothership Safety is run by our 'captain', Oscar Street, based within the West Yorkshire region.
Oscar has two years' experience in adult education, and over a decade of experience in studying and working in digital and creative backgrounds. He currently tutors to a group of adults with learning disabilities, autism, and other additional needs.

If someone discloses harm.
Every session follows a written disclosure procedure, agreed with the host organisation before we arrive. A link to the procedure will be provided at a later date.
IT Support, Penetration Testing and Incident Response
Mothership will refer you to the appropriate contacts if you are in need of any of the above. Anything beyond basic security for your organisation's own systems, we refer to a Cyber Essentials assessor or the regional Cyber Resilience Centre.
