Building a Stronger IT Foundation for Your Nonprofit

By Karen Dringenburg, CPA, Audit Manager at Blue & Co.

Your not-for-profit’s IT environment plays an important role in protecting donor information, financial data, and the systems that support your mission.

In this video, we highlight several foundational policies, including password security, data access, remote access, backup and recovery, and disaster planning, that can help organizations establish clear expectations and strengthen their overall IT safeguards.

For more detail on these considerations, read the full article.

If any of these policies are missing from your organization or have not been updated recently, now is an ideal time to assess your overall IT environment. Our not-for-profit team can help you evaluate your current safeguards and, when appropriate, connect you with our partners at Blue Pioneer Consulting for specialized IT and cybersecurity advisory support. Contact your local Blue & Co. advisor today to begin the conversation.
