Schools and Educational Institutions in the Sights of Cyber Criminals
Like any business, educational institutions are increasingly dependent on the internet and technology to conduct daily activities, from online learning and test platforms, to storing sensitive student and employee information. A data breach or cyber-attack can compromise this confidential information or even prevent access to vital online services, leading to reputational damage and loss of income, not to mention legal action, regulatory costs and the associated disruption to the institution.
