Cyber Security
in Education

Security resiliency is vital for organisations in the education sector, which are more likely to face
cyber threats than the average UK business.

Providing secure access to third parties to foster collaboration on research projects while safeguarding sensitive data and protecting your reputation by helping you understand the threat landscape and threat actor profiles to proactively mitigate risks.

Ensuring secure access for students locally, off campus, and internationally without degradation in service and proactively approaching network threats by securing your network assets, including non-standard equipment and bring your own device (BYOD).

Enhancing the student experience through policy and technology, enabling secure identity throughout the student lifetime, from on-boarding through to alumni. We also help assure both the immediate and extended supply chain.

Ensuring cyber policies are extended to protect workloads in the cloud and traditional on-premise systems to safeguard sensitive data, ensure uninterrupted access to educational resources and maintain the integrity of digital learning environments.
