Microsoft Defender XDR
Cyber attackers operate without moral boundaries. Recent reports reveal a rise in attacks targeting the most vulnerable industries, such as not-for-profits and charities. Unfortunately, most not-for-profits struggle with implementing strong cyber security strategies due to limited resources like time, money, and people.
We are here to help you change that with our cost-efficient solutions, specialised knowledge of the Microsoft security solution stack, and extensive experience working with not-for-profits. Our solutions and services take a security-first approach, enabling you to fully leverage your existing Microsoft technology investments to drive significant social change.
They trust us
We are the not-for-profit industry’s partner of choice
Working with not-for-profits and charities has always been a big part of Professional Advantage’s culture and history. For more than 35 years, we have been the partner of choice for over 200 not-for-profits in Australia by putting technology to work to accelerate their social impact and secure their data estate.
Our combined knowledge of Microsoft 365 and Azure solutions and proven industry-recommended security frameworks from the Australian Signals Directorate (ASD), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and the Center for Internet Security (CIS) are key to making us a trusted security partner.
We have a team of dedicated IT security professionals with years of experience assessing cyber security risks, implementing security solutions, and diffusing and responding to security incidents. As a multi-competency and Tier 1 CSP, we can help you get better value from your Microsoft software investment with our deep understanding of the licensing structure and how you can maximise it.
Need help mitigating your cyber security risks?
Let’s work together to protect your not-for-profit against evolving cyber threats. Here’s how we can help:
Essential Eight Risk Assessment
The first step in evaluating your not-for-profit’s cyber security risks is to assess it against a proven risk mitigation framework, such as Essential Eight. Recommended by the ASD, it has eight essential security controls and four maturity levels for reducing the impact of cyber security attacks.
For organisations new to Essential Eight, we offer a Risk Assessment at no cost to help your not-for-profit identify security gaps and provide advice on improving your organisation's security posture.
For those who have implemented some of Essential Eight’s controls but are unsure about how well they compare against its maturity model, we offer an Essential Eight Implementation.
Information Protection and Compliance
Not-for-profits handle sensitive information, including personal details of donors, beneficiaries, and volunteers, which is why it is imperative to have a pragmatic plan for information protection and compliance – one that supports a balance between protecting data while still providing your people with easy and flexible ways of working. We make this possible through iWorkplace for Microsoft 365.
Compliance made easy; that’s what iWorkplace can help your not-for-profit achieve. Benefit from auto-tagging of documents, automatic application of sensitivity and retention labels, ability to set up retention and disposal rules that span document libraries, automatic classification of files for compliance, and more.
Endpoint Security Management
With remote work, your staff and volunteers use various personal devices to access your not-for-profit data from home or on the go, which puts your organisation at higher risk of data leaks or insider threats. Implementing Microsoft Intune Suite and Defender XDR can help you manage and support a hybrid, multi-device environment.
We can help you adopt these solutions through our Endpoint Security & Management Consulting Services, which typically involve:
- In-depth review and analysis of your endpoint security and management requirements.
- A review of your existing Microsoft 365 license.
- Microsoft Intune and Defender XDR implementation services.
- Optional Endpoint Security Monitoring Services.
Security Monitoring Services
A typical challenge for most not-for-profits is having IT personnel who will stay long-term, can carry out strategic IT initiatives, and have extensive cyber security knowledge. We are here to complement your existing internal IT by acting as an extension of your team, providing:
- Flexible security monitoring support plans.
- Advanced tools for monitoring services, ensuring threats are detected and mitigated in real-time.
- Daily assessment, curation, and quick remediation of alerts.
- Monthly review of Security Scores to ensure continuous optimisation aligned with Essential Eight, NIST, or ISO 27001.
