NGOs and the public sector
Careful IT for organisations that answer to donors, members and the public.
NGOs and public bodies often work with sensitive information about people, across several locations, with a limited IT budget and staff who travel.
We help you protect that information, support staff in the field and in the office, and keep records that satisfy funders and reviewers.
Practical security, cloud and support for non-profits and public bodies, with the documentation that funders and auditors ask for.
Risks we see most often
Sensitive beneficiary data
Information about vulnerable people needs strict control and careful sharing.
Staff on the move
Laptops and phones used in the field are more likely to be lost or stolen.
Many accounts and many partners
Projects, short contracts and partners create accounts that are rarely closed.
Tight budgets
Money for IT is limited, so every purchase must matter.
Targeted attacks
Organisations in advocacy and public work are sometimes targeted for the information they hold.
What we put in place
Encrypted devices
Laptops and phones that protect data if lost, with the ability to lock or wipe them.
Clean access management
Accounts opened and closed with each project, with a second sign-in step.
Safe sharing
Cloud storage and sharing rules suited to confidential files.
Backups
Copies of project records, kept away from the office.
Evidence for reviewers
Policies, access lists and test records you can show to a funder or an auditor.

Data protection and donor requirements
Organisations that hold personal data about people are likely to fall under the Data Protection Act, 2019, and donors often add their own conditions. We help with technical controls and records. For what applies to your organisation, check the current requirements and take legal advice.
