Cybersecurity for the education sector

Schools, colleges and universities are managing more data online than ever before. From cloud apps and email to learning platforms and admin systems, the digital footprint is growing fast, and so are the risks.

TrustLayer helps educational institutions protect their networks, users and data from threats like malware, ransomware and phishing. Our platform brings together tools like web filtering, email security, and data loss prevention to create a safe online environment for students and staff.

Whether you're looking to secure your cloud infrastructure or apply better access controls, TrustLayer adapts to your needs and helps you stay protected without adding complexity.

Protecting pupil data

Schools and colleges are among the top targets for phishing, ransomware and data theft. With large volumes of personal information and limited cybersecurity resources, attackers see education as an easy entry point.

Ofsted is urging schools to step up protection, but nearly half (47%) still say they’re not prepared for a cyberattack.

TrustLayer helps education providers secure every user, device and app without adding pressure to stretched IT teams. Fast to deploy, easy to manage and built to fit the pace of modern education.
