Funders, government contracts and your board now expect proper cyber controls. You hold sensitive information about donors, volunteers and the people you support. Our not-for-profit IT support makes every dollar count, from Perth. - Microsoft 365 nonprofit licensing set up and used properly - Protection for client, donor and volunteer data - Board-ready cyber reporting to support governance duties - **40+ Google reviews** - Perth clients since 2000 - Zero offshoring We hold ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification from BSI, [certificate IS 840964](https://www.bsigroup.com/en-AU/products-and-services/assessment-and-certification/validation-and-verification/client-directory-certificate/IS%20840964/). ## Cyber security risks for charities ### Your data is sensitive, even if your budget is small. Many charities handle health, disability or family information. Health information is covered by the Privacy Act whatever your size. Government funding agreements increasingly specify cyber and privacy controls, and your board is responsible for them. - #### Client and donor data Case notes, health details and donor payment information. A breach hurts the people you exist to help. - #### Volunteers and shared accounts Shared passwords and personal devices are common in not-for-profits, and a common way in. We make individual access simple and affordable. - #### Funder and board accountability Funders ask about controls, and boards need to know the risk. We give both a clear, plain-English picture. ## Privacy and reporting changes for not-for-profits ### Many funders now expect documented security. The dates that affect your IT and data obligations. We track them so you don’t have to. 1. 30 May 2025 Businesses with annual turnover over $3 million must report ransomware payments to the Department of Home Affairs within 72 hours. 2. Ongoing The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) Practice Standards and many funding agreements expect documented information management and security. 3. 10 Dec 2026 Privacy policies must explain any automated decisions made using personal information, including decisions made with AI tools. 4. 2026–27 The second tranche of Privacy Act reform is in consultation. It proposes a “fair and reasonable” test for all data handling. ## Not-for-profit cyber security self-check ### Could you show your board and funders you’re secure?
