This is an illustrative service example based on common industry needs, not a named testimonial or measured client result. Scope and outcomes vary.

Example profile

Illustrative Montana nonprofit

Typical timeline

Typical: 30-60 days

Primary need

Nonprofit IT and security

Challenge

A typical nonprofit has staff, volunteers, board members, shared files, donor records, and grant documents spread across multiple accounts. Access reviews may be informal, former volunteers may retain access too long, and leadership may need better protection without adding a full-time IT hire.

How PBM can help

  • Audit Microsoft 365 users, groups, shared files, and administrator roles to remove stale access.
  • Enable MFA and tightened sign-in expectations for staff, board members, and high-risk accounts.
  • Separate staff and volunteer access patterns to reduce unnecessary exposure to donor and grant records.
  • Add endpoint security, backup monitoring, and a short incident response checklist leadership could follow.
  • Deliver plain-English phishing training built around donation scams, invoice fraud, and executive impersonation.

Intended outcomes

  • Former-user access cleaned up
  • Donor data exposure reduced
  • Board and staff MFA improved
  • Phishing readiness increased
  • Backup visibility improved
  • No internal IT hire required
