Cyber breaches in schools are increasing. UK government statistics show that 41% of primary schools, 70% of secondary schools and 92% of higher education colleges suffered attacks in a twelve-month period

An attack can see your school grind to a halt. It could also betray the confidentiality of student and staff members and see you breaching compliance obligations.

However, we know that procuring premium-tier cyber security for schools is frequently beyond school budgets. Also, when you implement security monitoring and tightening, pushback from staff can be fierce.

Network security
Protecting against attacks and unauthorised access to the school's network.

User access and authentication
Segmenting your network for different user groups (students, staff, guests) with varying levels of access. Promoting strong authentication methods such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), to prevent unauthorised access to systems and data.

Device security
Securing school-owned and student-owned devices, ensuring they are regularly updated and protected against malware.

Online learning platforms
Providing solutions for secure e-learning environments, including video conferencing and document sharing.

Monitoring and reporting
Installing tools that help schools track and respond to cybersecurity incidents.

Incident response
Putting an incident response plan in place and acting quickly to secure your networks if you are under attack.
