You're not the charity. You're the attack surface for all of them.
As a fundraising agency, donor-management platform, payment processor or grants platform, you hold supporter data on behalf of many charities at once. Pareto Phone had more than 70 charity clients, and its 2023 breach exposed supporter data from several of them. The ACNC's 2024–25 compliance focus asks how charities ensure third parties manage risk on their behalf, and the OAIC's guidance tells not-for-profits to take reasonable steps to ensure a third party's privacy practices meet expectations. Your charity customers need evidence they can rely on.
Your specific challenges
Pareto Phone is the direct peer reference
A shared telemarketing vendor was breached in April 2023. Amnesty International Australia said it was initially assured no donor data had been taken; by August, supporter data from several charities was confirmed exposed, and charities suspended their relationships with the vendor.
Data retention is both a compliance and attack-surface issue
Some of the Pareto data was years old: MSF's exposure was data from 2012 to 2015, and the Australian Conservation Foundation said Pareto kept old data it should have destroyed. The data you hold is the data you can lose.
Charities are being told to oversee their vendors
The OAIC's guidance tells not-for-profits to conduct periodic reviews of third-party arrangements and ensure third parties delete personal information at the end of the contract. The ACNC is asking how charities ensure third parties manage risk on their behalf.
Built for your situation
Credential-led attack path coverage
AD Password Audit, Phishing Impact and internal pentesting show how far a compromised credential reaches inside your environment. External and cloud pentesting cover the internet-facing and cloud surface donor data flows through.
Evidence charity customers can use
NodeZero findings give you attack-based evidence to share with charity customers as part of their supplier due diligence, and you can re-test after every fix rather than waiting for the next annual audit.
Data reach assessment
NodeZero findings reveal what data is actually accessible from a compromised account. That informs your retention decisions — the failing that amplified the Pareto breach impact.
