Infuse Technology brings Ampleforth Abbey into 21st century

Infuse Technology has just added the historic Tudor Ampleforth Abbey to its client base.

The active monastery that is home to an order of fifty-five Benedictine Monks, Ampleforth Abbey dates back to the pre-Reformation era, estimated to have been built in the early 1500s Tudor era. A college was founded in the vicinity of the Abbey grounds in 1802, when ownership changed hands.

With a Trust Board comprising both lay and monastic trustees responsible for overseeing safeguarding, strategy, finance, and estate management, it is essential for the Abbey to ensure that its IT and cyber security measures are up-to-date and capable of counteracting modern infiltration techniques.

Infuse is acting on an advisory and support role with the Abbey.

Paul Howard, Managing Director of Infuse Technology, said: “We look forward to working with the distinguished Ampleforth Abbey in what looks set to be a fortuitous relationship on both sides.”

How Ampleforth avoided being dissolved by Henry VIII is hard to say.
