The challenge

The onboarding audit found no successful backups for roughly three months, an abandoned forum plugin that had become a security risk, and unclear plugin licensing. After problems with earlier providers, IPASA wanted guaranteed response times.

What we did

Restored working backups to IPASA's own storage, flagged the abandoned forum plugin for replacement, and committed to SLA response times.

Built the Annual Philanthropy Symposium pages for 2024–2026, covering speakers, programme and registration. The 2026 page uses tabs for the venue, themes and masterclass, with custom deep-linking between tabs.

Digitised the membership application form and worked on Phase 1 of the Climate Funders' Knowledge Hub redesign.

Hardened site authentication with a custom login URL and 2FA for all staff, and added the site to DarkWatch Shield monitoring.

The outcome

Reliable technical partner providing rapid turnarounds for key annual events and security management.
