Nonprofits FAQ

See how nonprofits can safeguard donor, financial, and operational data without the complexity or cost of a full cloud migration. This section covers practical approaches to secure file sharing, device management, and data leak prevention for resource-conscious organizations.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is secure file sharing for nonprofits?

Secure file sharing for nonprofits provides controlled access and auditing for sensitive donor, client, and operational files without relying on public links or unmanaged sync copies.

Why can't nonprofits rely on public cloud storage?

Nonprofits cannot rely on public cloud storage alone because they still need organization-managed access controls, auditing, and data governance to protect sensitive donor, client, and program information.

What types of nonprofit data need protection?

Nonprofits need to protect donor records, financial data, grant documents, HR files, client or beneficiary information, and internal operational documents.

How does MyWorkDrive help nonprofits share files remotely?

MyWorkDrive provides controlled remote access to your existing file shares over HTTPS while keeping files in your approved storage and enforcing identity and file permissions.

How does MyWorkDrive prevent data leaks?

MyWorkDrive Data Leak Prevention (DLP) can restrict downloads and public sharing by policy while still allowing permitted access to files.

How does two-factor authentication improve nonprofit security?

Two-factor authentication improves nonprofit security by requiring a second verification step so a stolen password alone is less likely to grant access to files or accounts.

Can nonprofits control which devices access files?

Yes, nonprofits can control device access by using an access platform that supports device approval, conditional access rules, or restrictions for unmanaged devices.

Does MyWorkDrive support SAML or Shibboleth authentication?

MyWorkDrive supports SAML/ADFS single sign-on, so it can integrate with an identity provider for centralized authentication and policy enforcement.

Can nonprofits provide cloud-like access without migrating files?

Yes, nonprofits can provide cloud-like remote file access without migrating files by using a solution that connects securely to existing file shares and storage systems.

Why choose MyWorkDrive over VPN or cloud file sync services?

MyWorkDrive is a better fit than VPN or cloud file sync services when you need secure remote access to existing file shares because it provides HTTPS-only access without exposing SMB, preserves existing NTFS permissions, supports MFA and audit controls, and avoids data migration or sync copies on user devices.
