MissionDefend helps your church or nonprofit find its most important cybersecurity risks, build a practical improvement plan, and show leadership exactly what's being done — no IT degree required.
Plain-English questions · About 30 minutes · No credit card
Your organization holds donor records, giving history, member information, and access to funds — the very things attackers look for. Most churches and nonprofits don't have a security professional on staff, and most "solutions" are built for enterprises with IT departments. MissionDefend meets you where you are.
Donor and member records, giving history, counseling notes, background checks — information people trusted you to keep safe.
Fake invoice emails, gift-card scams impersonating your pastor, hijacked giving pages — small organizations are targeted precisely because defenses are light.
You're running a ministry, not an IT department. You need clear priorities and practical next steps — not a 400-page framework.
Answer plain-English questions about how your organization uses email, handles donations, stores member data, and manages accounts. No jargon, no trick questions — about 30 minutes.
See your security baseline score and a ranked list of what to fix first. Every recommendation explains the risk in plain language and walks you through the fix — most cost nothing but time.
Generate a board-ready report that shows where you stand, what's being done, and how you're improving over time. Assign tasks, track progress, and keep evidence in one place.
Designed for organizations using Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace, processing donations, and protecting member information — without a security team.
A guided check-up across accounts, email, devices, donations, and data — scored so you can see where you stand and measure improvement.
Not everything is urgent. We rank your risks so you tackle the few things that matter most before the many that can wait.
Create the essential written policies — acceptable use, passwords, data handling, incident response — tailored to your organization in minutes, not months.
Turn recommendations into assigned, trackable tasks so improvements actually happen — whether it's staff, a volunteer, or your outside IT helper.
Keep proof of what you've done — screenshots, policies, training records — organized in one place for your board, insurer, or auditor.
One-click reports in language your board and leadership actually understand — where you stand, what's improving, and what's next.
"We knew we should be doing something about security — we just didn't know where to start, and every consultant quote was more than our whole tech budget."
— The conversation happening in board meetings everywhere. MissionDefend is the practical starting point.
Trust is our whole business, so we'll be honest about ours. MissionDefend gives you a strong, practical baseline. It doesn't replace specialized services when you need them.
No. The assessment is written in plain English for pastors, executive directors, office administrators, and volunteers. If you can answer "who has access to your donor records?" you can complete it. Where a fix requires technical steps, we walk you through them or give you exactly what to hand to your IT helper.
Most organizations finish the initial assessment in about 30 minutes. You can save your progress and come back anytime, and you can invite a colleague to answer the sections they know best.
We take that responsibility seriously — it's the entire reason we exist. Your assessment answers and uploaded evidence are encrypted in transit and at rest, we collect only what the assessment needs, and we never sell your data.
No, and we're upfront about that. MissionDefend gives you a baseline: it helps you find and fix the fundamentals first. If your organization later needs a formal audit or penetration test — for a grant, an insurer, or a regulator — you'll walk into it far better prepared.
Yes — it makes them more effective. MissionDefend gives you a shared, prioritized list so your IT helper spends time on what matters most, and gives leadership visibility into what's actually getting done.
The free assessment gives you your baseline score and your top-priority risks. Paid plans add the full improvement plan, policy generator, task assignment, evidence storage, and board-ready reporting.
Your congregation and your donors trust you with their information. Take the first practical step toward protecting it — and have something real to show your board.
