Nonprofits should consider internet isolation cloud solutions in their IT security designs

Sharing below a nice article on internet isolation cloud solutions as a paradigm for implementing security.

A boundary-less IT security defense architecture (design) is definitely one that nonprofits should consider. And the reason for this is business necessity.

Nonprofit business architectures (designs) continue to require operational and even strategic collaboration and partnerships with a variety of global and local partners. These partners are all over the world and in some cases include national governments. The data nonprofits handle includes that of vulnerable and insecure populations. To operate effectively with such populations, nonprofits must maintain relationships of trust with these clients. The trust must in turn be supported by robust data stewardship and security practices, including regulatory compliance regimes. This is because for nonprofit enterprises to be effective today and looking ahead into the future, their sensitive data will need to be shared more often. They will be more exposed to partners having different IT capabilities and a amyriad IT security postures, including no security capacity.

Nonprofit IT security designs must follow the direction of their business designs or fail to be effective in business environments and relationships they must support.

Let me know what you think of the article.

I've been in audit, finance and compliance roles for over 15 years now, with the majority of my time spent in the international nonprofit sector. I have been blessed with many opportunities to audit large complex organizations and small entities all around the world. It is my deep passion for the kind of value that auditors can bring to nonprofit agencies and how that can affect the lives nonprofits touch; the kinds of experiences that I and other colleagues I know have had; the opportunities that lay ahead for our profession; that brings me to launch this nonprofit auditor blog space. However the views I share are not my employers' or affiliated groups, whether past or present. The world is made of networks, countries, religions, races, companies, even brands are all forms of networks. In my career as a non profit auditors, I have found that networking with other auditors and management professionals has been immensely beneficial. This blog is to share those experiences, the news and the best practices in our niche sector. I humbly invite all to join, we all have much to say! We already do a lot of writing so this should be easy!
