The Problem

Volunteers Leave but Their Logins Stay Open to Your Donor Data

The gap shows up after a busy event season, a staff change in development, or the night bots start testing stolen cards on your donation page.

  1. Old volunteers

    Last year's event volunteers still have working email accounts.

    Old volunteers

    Every month we remove leavers and give new volunteers named, role-based accounts.

  2. Shared logins

    5 people share one password for the donor CRM.

    Shared logins

    Each person gets a named login with MFA, and shared passwords move to a password manager.

  3. Card testing

    Bots run stolen cards through your donation form overnight.

    Card testing

    We set your payment platform's fraud rules and CAPTCHA, then check for failed-donation bursts monthly.

  4. Board email

    Board members use personal Gmail for confidential board business.

    Board email

    Board members get organization accounts with MFA, reviewed with everyone else each month.

Your development director left in March, and her account still opens the donor CRM in June. Last summer's gala volunteers share one login for the event spreadsheet. Two board members forward board documents to personal Gmail. One night, your donation page takes hundreds of tiny gifts in an hour, and most of the cards are declined. Nobody on staff has security in their job description. The IT budget is whatever's left after programs.

We start with the accounts, because that's where most nonprofit trouble begins. In the first month, everyone gets a named login with MFA, shared passwords move into a password manager, and your domain gets DMARC. Then every month we review who joined and who left, check your donation form for card testing, and send a one-page report your board can read. Security becomes a monthly habit, not a scramble after a scare.

  • Volunteers come and go safely

    Departed volunteers and board members lose access in the monthly review, not years later.

  • Donor data kept private

    Donor CRM logins and exports are reviewed, so only the right people can download donor lists.

  • Donation forms watched

    Card-testing bursts on your donation page get caught and blocked in your payment platform.

Our Cybersecurity for Nonprofits Process

From First Call to a Monthly Security Habit in Five Clear Steps

You approve the account list and the baseline before anything changes. After that, each month's review and report arrive in the same week, so your board knows what to expect.

  1. We ask how many staff, board members, and volunteers you have, which donor CRM and donation platform you use, and which licenses you hold. If MFA and your platform's free fraud settings are enough for an organization your size, we'll tell you before you sign up.

Projects We've Built

Websites and apps we designed and built that hold donor, member, and community records. Envitis lets supporters fund charity projects and see recent donations.

What's Included

What You Get With a Managed Cybersecurity Service for Non-Profits

The plan covers named logins with MFA, monthly access reviews for staff, board, and volunteers, donation form protection, and a board report. Larger plans add donor CRM reviews, phishing tests, restore tests, and an incident runbook.

  • Volunteer and board account reviews

    Every month, leavers lose access, new volunteers get named accounts, and board members' logins get checked.

  • MFA and shared login cleanup

    MFA on email, the donor CRM, and your payment platform, with shared passwords moved into a password manager.

  • Donation form protection

    Card-testing defenses set in your payment platform, plus monthly checks for bursts of small, failed donations.

  • Donor CRM access reviews

    Quarterly checks of who can view and export donor records in Bloomerang, Salesforce, Blackbaud, or a similar CRM.

  • Phishing tests and refreshers

    Quarterly phishing tests with a short refresher for anyone who clicked, on the 2 larger plans.

  • Monthly board report

    A one-page summary of what changed, what was blocked, and what needs a decision from leadership.

What Our Clients Say

What Clients Say After Launch

Feedback from teams we have built apps, platforms, and websites for.

We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture

Why Nonprofits Trust Us With Donor and Volunteer Data

Nonprofit security has to fit volunteers, boards, and budgets that donors watch closely. These habits keep the work affordable, kind to busy people, and easy to report.

  • Kind to volunteers

    Volunteers get simple, named accounts and a one-page sign-in guide. A retiree helping at an event can sign in without calling anyone.

  • Permissions, not donor files

    We review roles and export rights inside your CRM, not donor records themselves. If a check needs real data, a staff member runs the report and shares only the result.

  • Free features before new tools

    Most nonprofit editions of Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 already include strong security features. We turn those on before suggesting anything that costs money.

  • Reports a board can read

    Each monthly report fits on one page and uses plain words. Your treasurer sees what changed, what it cost, and what needs a decision.

  • Changes avoid your big events

    We schedule changes around galas, giving days, and year-end appeals. Nobody gets locked out of the donation tools on the busiest night of your year.

  • Honest about coverage hours

    We review alerts on business days, and your tools block known threats automatically overnight. If you need people watching around the clock, we'll point you to 24/7 monitoring.

Good fit

  • Small nonprofits with no IT staff

    Your operations manager also handles IT, and you need cybersecurity for nonprofit organizations that runs every month without adding to their week.

  • Organizations that rely on volunteers

    Your events bring in dozens of volunteers each season, and you've lost track of who still has an email account or a spreadsheet link.

  • Nonprofits hit by card testing

    Your donation page took a flood of tiny, mostly declined gifts overnight, and your payment platform is asking what you've changed.

  • Organizations answering funder questions

    Your foundation funder or cyber insurer sent a security questionnaire, and you need honest answers with monthly evidence behind them.

  • IT providers serving nonprofits

    Your company supports several nonprofits, and you want a managed cybersecurity service for non-profits you can deliver under your brand.

Not a fit

  • One-time setup only

    You want the basics switched on once, with no monthly plan. Our cybersecurity for small business page covers a one-time setup at a fixed price.

  • Need 24/7 human monitoring

    You need people watching alerts overnight and on weekends. Our 24/7 security monitoring page covers round-the-clock coverage.

  • Need a new donor CRM

    You're choosing or moving to a new donor database. Our CRM for nonprofits page covers selection, setup, and moving your data.

  • Budget under $450 a month

    Your budget can't carry a monthly plan yet. Turn on MFA everywhere and use your payment platform's free fraud settings first, then come back as you grow.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on cost, setup time, choosing an advisor, requirements, card testing, training, and volunteer accounts.

  • It starts at $450 per month for up to 25 staff, board, and volunteer accounts. That covers the first-month baseline, monthly account reviews, donation form checks, and a board report. Nonprofits with up to 75 accounts and a donor CRM start at $700 per month, and multi-site organizations with up to 200 accounts start at $1,100 per month.

  • The baseline takes 2 to 3 weeks: named logins, MFA, DMARC, and donation form settings. After that, the monthly reviews start, and your first board report arrives at the end of month 1. We plan the baseline around galas, giving days, and year-end appeals, so nobody loses access to donation tools during a campaign.

  • Ask for sample reports, who will do the work, and how they handle volunteers and donor data. Experienced advisors talk about your CRM, donation platform, and board, not only firewalls. Ask what they'd turn on in the licenses you already hold before they sell anything new. A good advisor also says what they don't cover, such as overnight monitoring.

  • The best ones cover the accounts, donor data, and donation forms a nonprofit actually runs, at a monthly price the budget can carry. Look for monthly access reviews that include volunteers and board members, card-testing checks, and a report your board can read. Be wary of plans that sell new tools before using what your nonprofit edition already includes.

  • There's no single cybersecurity law for nonprofits, but several rules can apply. Card donations bring PCI DSS duties through your payment processor, and state breach notification laws cover donor personal data. Federal grants issued since October 2024 ask recipients to take reasonable cybersecurity measures to protect personal information (2 CFR 200.303(e)). Your counsel interprets these, and we set the controls.

  • Start with what you already pay for: MFA, the security settings in your Google or Microsoft nonprofit edition, and your payment platform's fraud rules. Add a password manager for shared logins and a monthly review of who has access. Those steps cost little and cover the account takeovers and card testing most nonprofits face first.

  • Turn on the fraud rules and CAPTCHA your payment platform offers, then watch for bursts of small, declined donations. In Stripe, Radar rules can block payments that fail the CVC check, and many donation tools let you raise the minimum gift. We set those up during the baseline and check your payment logs every month for new bursts.

  • Nonprofit training should cover the scams staff actually see: bank change requests, gift card requests, and fake donation receipts. Fake grantee emails ask finance to update bank details, gift card requests pose as your executive director, and fake receipts carry bad links. The 2 larger plans include quarterly phishing tests with a short refresher. Volunteers get a one-page guide instead of a long course.

  • Give each volunteer a named account with MFA for only the tools their role needs, and remove it when they leave. Avoid shared event logins, because nobody can tell who did what. Our monthly review flags every account unused for 30 days, so seasonal volunteers don't keep access into the next year.

  • You keep everything we set up: the settings, the password manager, and the written account rules. We hand over a settings log and a monthly checklist your staff or IT volunteer can follow. If a one-time setup suits you better from the start, our cybersecurity for small business page covers that fixed-price option.
