What Real Nonprofits Say About Our Cybersecurity Services
“It can be really unnerving to have a cyber breach happen, and it is just really nice to have someone next to us to say, ‘Here’s the next step, here’s what we’re doing, and here’s what you need to do.’”
- Midwest Assistance Program
“I am thrilled that we are finally at this point, that we can start thinking proactively on how technology can support our mission, instead of putting all our efforts into cleaning up and trying to get back to even ground. It’s a lot more exciting on this side of things.”
- Global Ties U.S.

Cybersecurity for Nonprofits: Project Details
Tech Impact will work with your organization to understand the priorities, goals, and challenges related to data protection - how we proactively keep our data safe, and data loss prevention – how we better ensure data is not lost either by accidental or malicious reasons. Based on the needs identified, Tech Impact will configure some or all of the following:
- Create a conditional access policy to require MFA to access all Microsoft 365 cloud applications.
- Setup Microsoft Defender for Microsoft 365 including anti-phishing, safe attachments, safe links, anti-spam, and anti-malware
- Configure Microsoft 365 Message Encryption
- Configure backup, data classification and data labeling
For Data Protection projects, duration is dependent on the extent of the scope, typically take 4 weeks for configuration and generally follows the below schedule:
Kickoff and Planning Meeting – Determine security methods and agree on project plan
Implementation Work– Based on the plan created during the kickoff meeting, Tech Impact will setup, create, and configure required security settings
Rollout - MFA/Defender/Encryption will be rolled out to all staff accounts on the agreed upon go live date.
Documentation – Tech Impact will document all necessary information for administrators and users
For Data Loss Prevention projects, duration is typically ongoing after initial setup configurations are established.
Tech Impact will work with your organization to implement and deploy a Microsoft Intune management solution, which will enable the organization to monitor and enforce adherence to information security policies. Tech Impact will implement a combination of policies, configurations, and restrictions that will ensure your device security posture follows industry best practices.
The Cybersecurity Team will work with a project team from your organization to ensure that all technical prerequisites for the implementation have been met (including appropriate EMS licensing), implement, and configure the prescribed security and compliance features, and create a final implementation report containing all configurations that have been established.
Projects typically run between 3 and 4 weeks to complete based on features selected. These projects generally follow the below schedule:
Kickoff and Planning Meeting – Determine security methods and agree on project plan
Implementation Work – Based on the plan created during the kickoff meeting, Tech Impact will setup, create, and configure appropriate settings
Rollout - Tech Impact will create and provide a final report of all configurations that have been established as part of project for your organization. Tech Impact will provide one rollout to all devices at an agreed upon date.
Documentation – Following a successful rollout, Tech Impact will document all necessary information for administrators and users and remove any configurations, accounts, and groups used during testing which are no longer required by your organization.
Tech Impact will configure Microsoft 365 to act as a Single Sign-on platform for user authentication across applications. This will enable the organization to monitor and enforce adherence to security policies across their entire fleet of organizational devices and any personal devices on which staff might choose to perform work activities from a centralized administration interface.
Projects typically run between 2 and 4 weeks to complete based on the number of applications selected. These projects generally follow the below schedule:
Kickoff and Planning Meeting – Determine applications for SSO configuration and agree on project plan
Implementation Work – Based on the plan created during the kickoff meeting, Tech Impact will setup, create, and configure appropriate settings
Documentation – Following a successful implementation, Tech Impact will document all necessary information for administrators and users.
Sensitivity labels are part of Microsoft Purview Information Protection. They allow organizations to classify, label, and protect data across Microsoft 365 services including Outlook, SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive, without compromising user productivity or collaboration.
Labels help users and systems understand the sensitivity level of content. Once applied, labels can:
• Encrypt documents and emails
• Restrict sharing and access
• Apply watermarks, headers, or footers
• Control offline access and expiration policies
• Prevent accidental data sharing with AI tools, and ensure that only authorized audiences can access sensitive content
Tech Impact Approach
A Tech Impact consultant will work with you to:
• Provide overview on sensitivity labels and use
• Assist in defining labels specific to your organization (typically 3-4 categories)
• Configure Microsoft PowerShell to implement the custom labels
• Train on use
Microsoft Licensing Requirements
• Microsoft 365 E5/A5/G5/E3/A3/G3/F1/F3/Business Premium/OneDrive for Business (Plan 2)
• Enterprise Mobility + Security E3/E5
• Office 365 E5/A5/E3/A3
• AIP Plan 1
• AIP Plan 2
Timeline and Deliverables
This project can be included in a current SharePoint File Sharing and Collaboration Project. If delivered separately, the project will kick off in roughly 2-3 weeks and will take about 6 weeks to complete. Prices starting at $1,800.
Whether you're just starting your digital transformation or looking to optimize your current systems, Tech Impact offers flexible support and advisory services.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Nonprofit Cybersecurity Services
Nonprofits collect and store lots of sensitive data, from supporters’ contact and payment details to notes on beneficiaries’ progress in their programs to internal data like organizational credit card numbers and employee tax information. This volume of information combined with a general lack of data protection infrastructure across the sector makes nonprofits a prime target for cyberattacks—in fact, 68% of nonprofits reported experiencing at least one data breach between 2022 and 2025.
Cybersecurity services that are designed for nonprofits reduce the risk of cyberattacks because they’re generally more affordable than generic services and account for charitable organizations’ unique vulnerabilities more effectively.
Effective nonprofit cybersecurity assessments involve identifying internal and external threats to your organization’s data, categorizing security risks based on likelihood of occurrence and potential consequences, and developing strategies to protect critical assets. Tech Impact offers multiple low-cost, guided assessments to review your nonprofit’s overall security risk status, website vulnerabilities, potential network issues, and other essential areas of cybersecurity.
Tech Impact’s cybersecurity experts are well-versed in many data protection regulations—including HIPAA, FERPA, GDPR, PCI DSS, and various state-level consumer data privacy laws—and will ensure your nonprofit’s policies and processes align with all relevant requirements.
Yes—employee training is a core element of our cybersecurity services. We’ll provide your nonprofit with discounted access to the KnowBe4 platform, where you can simulate phishing attempts and develop online courses (with the Tech Impact team’s expert input) to familiarize your staff with key data security practices.
