Centre for Research and Education in Applied Community Technology

Resilience for the digital public space.

REACT builds digital resilience for the people and organizations most often targeted or left behind. Our research informs our security, our education empowers users, and our web services give communities a safer place to speak.

Our Mission

Grassroots groups, non-profits, and marginalized communities face a dual challenge: they are priced out of professional web services, and they are disproportionately vulnerable to digital security threats. REACT bridges this gap with practical tools, public-interest research, and clear security education.

  • Grassroots community organizations
  • Non-profits and small businesses
  • Marginalized communities

Digital Resilience

Building resilience through research, education, and services.

Research: Defending the Infrastructure

We conduct independent infrastructure security research to uncover systemic vulnerabilities and help build a more resilient digital backbone.

Education: Empowering the Individual

We translate security knowledge into actionable, jargon-free privacy guidance for everyday users, organizers, and activists.
