Cybersecurity as a Service for Educational Institutions
Always-on cyber protection for students, faculty, staff, and data — both on and off campus.
Keeping Schools and Universities Secure 24/7/365
From endpoint and network protection to managed detection and response, our blend of tech solutions and human-led threat hunting elevates your cyber defenses, frees up IT capacity, and adds expertise without adding headcount.
OPTIMIZE SECURITY BUDGETS
Tight budgets make it tough to secure every endpoint, upgrade or replace outdated technologies, or hire qualified personnel to tackle today's cyber threats.
With a user-friendly platform and round-the-clock Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services, Sophos provides superior cybersecurity protection — and peace of mind — without breaking the bank.
STOP PHISHING ATTEMPTS
Phishing scams are often the first way attackers sneak into an institution's network. Every time your faculty, staff, and students open an email, you're at risk!
Sophos helps you stop attacks by locking down your endpoints plus we give you the support you need to educate faculty, students, and staff on recognizing and responding to cyber threats.
PROTECT REMOTE SERVICES
In these days of hybrid learning, remote services are a vulnerable — and lucrative — entry point for cybercriminals looking to access your institution's network.
With Sophos, you have the power to control access to valuable information across your network. And you can count on us to monitor and defend your remote services 24/7.
PREVENT DATA LOSS
Cyber attackers set their sights on the education sector for its vast attack surface and valuable research assets.
Our cutting-edge AI-led technology, paired with real-time threat intelligence, works tirelessly to prevent, detect, and resolve threats across networks of any size.
GAIN CYBERSECURITY EXPERTISE
Improving your IT team's cyber expertise or asking them to do more with less is challenging when you lack staff or available talent.
Whether working alongside you — or independently — Sophos detects, monitors, and protects your network 24/7, so you can boost IT capacity without adding cybersecurity headcount.
