Google Workspace & Microsoft 365 protection
Advanced Threat Protection for School Districts
With cyber threats targeting school districts on the rise, it’s crucial to have robust security measures in place. Our phishing and malware protection products are designed specifically for K-12 school districts to provide a safe and secure learning environment by safeguarding against data breaches, malware, phishing schemes, and unauthorized access.
Rising cyber threats in education
Thwart cyber attacks targeting student & staff data stored in Google Workspace & Microsoft 365
School districts are experiencing higher levels of cyberattacks than ever before. At the same time, cybersecurity infrastructure and staffing in K-12 school districts are notoriously underfunded, making them attractive targets for cybercriminals. Sensitive student and staff information, such as social security numbers and W2s, are valuable on the dark web, leading to significant financial losses for schools and exposure to identity theft for staff and students alike.
Comprehensive threat protection solutions
Phishing and malware threat protection
Phishing is the primary threat vector used by criminals to access school user accounts. Schools are also facing increased malware attacks, including ransomware. If your district uses Google Workspace and/or Microsoft 365, external threats can gain access to student and staff information through email, file sharing, and risky 3rd party applications.
- Scan internal and external emails for phishing and malware threats in the message body, attachments, and links.
- Quarantine or delete phishing emails and files containing malware in near real time.
- Identify and manage risky 3rd party applications connected to district Google and Microsoft accounts through OAuth.
Protect personally identifiable information
Student and staff information stored in school information systems are lucrative targets for cybercriminals. At the same time, the most common cause of school data incidents is simple accidental exposure. District IT teams must be able to manage access to sensitive information stored in Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 not only to comply with state and federal regulations but also to protect students and staff.
- Automate data loss prevention to protect social security numbers, W2s, payment and health information, and more.
- Detect anomalous events that indicate unauthorized access to data.
- Identify when data is being improperly emailed or shared.
- Continuously monitor behavior in Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 and automatically mitigate data security risks.
Prevent account takeovers
Phishing and malware attacks can lead to account takeover of your district’s Google Workspace and/or Microsoft 365 accounts. An account takeover is notoriously difficult to detect in these cloud applications and can lead to additional cyber risks and data exposure.
- Protect district Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 from an account takeover with advanced phishing and malware threat protection built for the cloud.
- Easily detect behavior that indicates an account takeover attack is underway, such as multiple unsuccessful logins, logins from foreign locations, and failed multifactor authentication checks.
- Automatically detect and remediate successful account takeovers using highly customizable policy enforcements.
