What challenges did Life Without Barriers face with their legacy systems?
Life Without Barriers encountered several challenges as they grew, including security risks due to sensitive personal and financial data being spread across siloed platforms. This situation led to threats to privacy, trust, and operational efficiency, as their digital ecosystem became a patchwork of legacy systems and disconnected applications, resulting in data integrity issues and a lack of a clear source of truth.
How did Microsoft solutions improve data security for Life Without Barriers?
Life Without Barriers adopted Microsoft Security Program for Nonprofits, utilizing tools such as Microsoft Purview, Defender, and Entra ID. This implementation led to the detection of over 321,000 sensitive items with a classification accuracy of 95%. The organization experienced reduced risk, improved compliance, and allowed staff to spend more time with clients rather than on administrative tasks.
What impact did the transformation have on staff efficiency?
The transformation simplified the way staff worked, significantly reducing the time spent on navigating complex security policies. With Entra ID, employees could easily log in and focus on their tasks without encountering barriers. This shift not only eased the workload on staff but also fostered a culture of data responsibility, allowing them to prioritize client interactions over administrative duties.
