7 SECURITY THE CLOUD As the volume and velocity of cyberattacks continue to increase, security is understandably top of mind for nonprofit organizations entrusting donor data and other sensitive information to the cloud. Nonprofits that operate in certain fields also may need to conform to strict regulations. However, as long as smart security strategies are deployed, the cloud environment can actually better protect data against potential threats and vulnerabilities. CDW can work with you to ensure your cloud service provider is compliant and certified, and help you incorporate the right cloud security policies and tools into a multilayered defense that includes: Data loss prevention risk assessment Authentication Encryption Next-generation firewalls 56% of nonprofit organizations trust cloud providers to secure their data. 94% saw security improvements, including up-todate patching, better anti-spam filters and up-todate anti-virus protection. 1 Find out more about how CDW Nonprofit can help you achieve your IT and cloud objectives.

9 EXPERT Q&A Q. What are the biggest benefits the cloud can offer nonprofit organizations? The cloud enables nonprofit organizations to do more with less. They can reach more people more effectively and efficiently, particularly globally. They can be more strategic in their mission and their message, which can bring in more contributions. The cloud also supports better internal collaboration, helps maximize IT spending and frees IT staff from everyday infrastructure maintenance so they can focus more on strategic initiatives that help advance their organization s mission. Q. What are the biggest challenges involved in selecting and implementing cloud solutions? Joe Farace CLOUD CLIENT EXECUTIVE, CDW The lack of an overall cloud strategy is the number one issue. Nonprofit organizations often decide to move one part of their data center, such as backup or disaster recovery, to the cloud without taking into account their entire data center footprint and thinking strategically about it. Another challenge is recognizing that the cloud can bring value, but not knowing where to start in terms of exploring solutions and vendors. Q. What tips can you offer nonprofit organizations considering cloud solutions? First of all, slow down and take your time. Be strategic, methodical and inquisitive. Don t be afraid to ask questions, vet potential partners and consider multiple solutions. It s also important to have a partner who understands your organizational challenges and how to apply cloud solutions to solve them as part of a comprehensive IT strategy. The right partner can help you understand and compare the cost of cloud solutions with on-premise solutions so you can make informed decisions. CDW.com/nonprofit 9
