Community organization improves security posture and achieves Cyber Essentials Plus compliance while supporting multi location operations
Share Community is a UK-based community and charitable organization serving multiple locations across the country. The organization required comprehensive managed security and IT operations tailored to non-profit constraints and community sector requirements.
Share Community faced critical security and operational challenges typical of community organizations with lean IT resources. Limited in-house security expertise, inconsistent patching across locations, compliance challenges, lack of round-the-clock support, and growing support requests without centralized visibility created material compliance and operational risk.
Teceze implemented an integrated Managed Security Service model tailored to non-profit operational constraints. The engagement combined endpoint protection, vulnerability management, compliance certification, and 24×7 service desk operations within cost-effective offshore-led delivery
The integrated security model included:
Proactive threat monitoring across all endpoints.
Structured scanning and consistent remediation.
Cyber Essentials and Cyber Essentials Plus support.
Enabling 24×7 coverage without cost escalation.
A structured governance model provided consistent visibility into security performance, compliance readiness, and operational delivery while keeping key stakeholders aligned.
| Cadence | Activity | Participants |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly | Performance metrics and incident tracking | Teceze ops lead + Share Community IT |
| Monthly | Security posture and compliance review | Teceze delivery manager + operations lead |
| Quarterly | Business review and funder reporting | Executive leadership + funders/trustees |
| Bi-Annual | Compliance audit and certification | Compliance review and external audit |
Share Community achieved critical outcomes for non-profits: measurable security and compliance maturity without expanding internal IT headcount. The 67% incident reduction demonstrates effective protection. Cyber Essentials Plus achievement enables confident reporting to funders, trustees, and regulators.
“Teceze brought much-needed security expertise and compliance knowledge to Share Community. They understood the unique constraints of operating in the non-profit sector and delivered solutions that fit our budget and operational needs. Our funders now have confidence in our security maturity.”
