Educational institutions are incredibly rich targets for cybercriminals – large volumes of data, valuable intellectual property, numerous access points, and a continuously changing student body that’s difficult to train and secure.
A successful cyber attack can expose your community, damage your institution’s brand, and cause significant financial loss.
For educational institutions - whether they're K-12 or higher education - keeping student and staff data secure is a top priority. However, tight budgets and limited resources can make doing so a challenge.
Cybersecurity doesn’t need to be so hard. Mimecast offers easy to implement, easy to manage, effective and affordable security solutions for hundreds of institutions just like yours.
Lean IT teams
Often lack the resources to quickly identify, prioritize, and respond to cyber threats
Legacy infrastructure
Makes it difficult to centrally monitor systems and secure them with the latest software updates
Protecting sensitive data
Is especially important as student PII and valuable research is increasingly targeted through sophisticated email-borne cyber attacks
Faculty & staff mistakes
Are responsible for 90+% of major data breaches, yet employees don’t know how to safeguard themselves or your institution
Risky student behavior
Is difficult to address - students often exhibit poor judgement, visiting malicious websites and responding to fraudulent or malicious emails
