Built Around Your Work

Protect donor trust and the people you support

Charities and community organisations handle donor details, financial records and, in some services, sensitive participant information. Staff turnover, volunteer access and limited resources can make security responsibilities difficult to maintain.

We help you understand the risks in your actual environment and prioritise improvements. The focus is practical: secure access, safer everyday behaviour, recoverable information and a clear response when something goes wrong.

How We Help

Cybersecurity services shaped for not-for-profits

Account and access reviews

Review multi-factor authentication, shared accounts, privileged access and departure processes.

Email and fundraising protection

Strengthen email controls and payment-verification practices around donations, invoices and requests to change bank details.

Device and application security

Review patching, endpoint protection and the devices used by staff and volunteers.

Donor and participant information

Map sensitive records, review sharing permissions and clarify who can access them.

Staff and volunteer awareness

Provide practical training on phishing, suspicious requests, information handling and reporting concerns.

Backup and incident readiness

Review recovery arrangements and document contacts, responsibilities and first-response steps.

Your Systems

Start with a scoped security review

We review your users, devices, cloud services, important information and existing controls. Findings are prioritised by business impact and effort, so decision-makers can see what to address first.

Where appropriate, an Essential Eight assessment can provide a structured baseline. The ASD Essential Eight complements broader security measures; it does not cover every risk or guarantee protection.

People and Process

Make security part of everyday work

Technical settings work best when people know what to do. We help define practical steps for onboarding volunteers, approving access, verifying unusual payment requests and reporting suspicious messages.

  • Give each role only the access its work requires.
  • Make reporting a concern straightforward for staff and volunteers.
  • Review access when a person leaves or changes responsibilities.
  • Practise incident and recovery steps with the people who own them.

We run a busy clinic in Melbourne and have been using IT Networks' managed cybersecurity services for some time now. The experience has been exceptional. Their team is incredibly hands-on and responsive — always quick to address any issues or provide guidance when needed. What impressed us most is the value: their service is just as thorough and reliable as what you'd expect from a major provider, but at a much more reasonable cost. Highly recommend IT Networks to any business looking for dependable cybersecurity support without the hefty price tag.

Our business engaged IT Networks initially to conduct a Cyber-security Audit. From the first meeting, I was extremely impressed by the attention to detail, focus on understanding the business IT set up and also on our ways of working. This resulted in an excellent outcome, improving our internal IT security. We went on to engage IT Networks as a managed service partner. Through our ongoing engagement, they are adding real value to our business and great support both during business hours and also outside of business hours when needed. Great team, great to work with!

Boutique 3rd party provider for all you IT needs. I have entrusted our business IT needs to IT Networks for nearly 30 years now. They provide pro-active support on a monthly basis avoiding breakdown and failures. I've found this works well on-going rather than wait for problems to occur and then fix. Easily contactable, any problems that may arise are dealt with promptly. They manage domain names, fibre connections and all the various software subscriptions. I would recommend the team at IT Networks.
