The NonProfit Times -"States Push To Encrypt Donor/Client Info

The NonProfit Times - The Leading Business Publication For Nonprofit Management: "States Push To Encrypt Donor/Client Info

By Michele Donohue

Fred Schultz, CEO and founder of the Foundation for Positively Kids (FPK) in Las Vegas, deals with a lot of confidential information in his program for medically-dependent children. The organization stores names, addresses, medication, family information and donor credit card information.

A good portion of that information arrived via email. That system now must be overhauled to accommodate a new Nevada law that requires personal information transmissions to be encrypted."
