Education Security Challenges

Educational institutions face unique cybersecurity challenges that require specialized solutions and approaches.

Student Data Protection

Educational institutions hold sensitive student records, financial aid data, and health information that must comply with FERPA, HIPAA, and state privacy laws.

Distributed Campus Networks

Open campus networks, BYOD policies, guest Wi-Fi, and thousands of personal devices create a massive attack surface with limited security controls.

Targeted Phishing Attacks

Educational emails (.edu domains) have higher open rates, making schools prime targets for credential harvesting, ransomware, and financial fraud attacks.

Limited IT Budgets

Constrained budgets and small IT security teams must protect large user populations spanning multiple locations with diverse technology needs.
