The challenge: Security compliance for collaboration with heavyweight organizations like the WTO
The World Cancer Research Fund International (WCRFI) unites and leads a network of cancer prevention not-for-profits across three continents, amplifying cancer-prevention education to reach as many people around the world as possible. Not only are employees distributed globally, but a lot of travel is involved.
Being a global network benefits their work but also involves risks in terms of data security. WCRFI is a key player in global cancer prevention and, as such, connects with heavyweight organizations like the World Health Organization and numerous national cancer prevention charities around the globe.
“It’s important for us that our network and contacts know that our attitude to IT safety and security is active and progressive. Oftentimes, we share and communicate research data that is the result of years of hard work,” says Matt Barton.
The Solution: Easy implementation of Senturo
A peer recommended Senturo to Matt, and the setup to test the software was quick. Its user-friendly centralized installation made it easy for Matt to secure the entire fleet quickly.
“Senturo was fully functional from day one. Installation was straightforward. We could get our entire fleet covered quickly and easily. It was really refreshing to have a no-hassle installation.”
What convinced Matt was the ability to track, trace and lock down one device or all of their fleet at the touch of a button. They find it reassuring that information can be wiped remotely if a device goes missing.
At the same time, having the possibility to do so is a requirement when playing with big organizations, like the World Health Organization, that must comply with tighter privacy and security protocols.
It's great that Senturo empowers us to geolocate, recover and, as a last resort, lock down one, some or all of our IT fleet at the touch of a button. The peace of mind it gives is incredibly valuable.

The result: A comprehensive solution to track devices
“Because Senturo could be used across all Apple devices, I was satisfied that I could track my entire fleet of Macs, iPads, and iPhones across the whole of our network. This meant I didn’t have to worry about keeping my eye on any IOS or OS device not covered by Senturo. It was a comprehensive solution.”
Senturo’s technical functionality has given Matt and his team something that’s very non-technical: peace of mind. Matt says, “It’s great to have a system that empowers me to track, trace and lock down one, some or all of our fleet at the touch of a button.”
“Knowing that if any of the fleet goes missing, I can wipe it remotely is very reassuring. The control and functionality that Senturo gives me is great, but, thinking it through, the peace of mind that I find most valuable. I can get on with other things, knowing that safety and security are taken care of.”
