Kosher Computing
Safe, Ethical, and Smart Technology for Institutions & Families
Our Purpose: Kavanah (כַּוָּנָה)
To guide Jewish institutions, leadership, day schools, and families in navigating modern technology safely, ethically, and efficiently. Kosher Computing exists to bridge the gap between technical IT and organizational leadership: transforming technology from a source of vulnerability and confusion into an engine for communal resilience.
What We Do
Educating and empowering Jewish institutions, schools, and community members
Synagogues & Nonprofits
Educating staff on nonprofit tech grant utilization, CRM database stewardship, threat awareness, and eliminating redundant software tech bloat.
Schools & Youth Programs
Guiding educators, students, and parents on generative AI ethics in classroom work, student privacy defense, and healthy screen boundaries.
Leadership & Boards
Equipping board members and executive directors to lead digital health with clarity, actively manage vendor relationships, and prepare non-technical crisis playbooks.
Families & Community
Empowering congregants and families through proxy education on identity defense, scam prevention (such as AI voice scams), and safe online habits.
Our Guiding Practices: Hanhagot (הַנְהָגוֹת)
Actionable, unbreakable operational commitments
1. People Over Platforms
A tool without a trained operator provides nothing but a false sense of progress. Whether setting up threat detection or a donor CRM, spending communal funds on human expertise and training must always come first. A basic, affordable platform run by a trained expert will always outperform an expensive, premium tool with no operator.
2. Culture Over Switches
You cannot enforce digital safety or operational efficiency by simply flipping technical switches overnight. Education must precede implementation. By connecting tech policies to real human stakes: protecting vulnerable families, guarding donor trust, or ensuring staff get paid: we teach the "why" so people actively want to learn the "how."
Operational Scope & Advisory Boundaries
Kosher Computing provides educational programs, advisory services, policy creation, and strategic blueprints rather than acting as a Managed Service Provider (MSP). Our framework is completely vendor-neutral and applies equally across Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Apple, or custom environments.
