Education

Education platforms sit between learners, educators, and the institutions responsible for both, often built up one system at a time.

WHERE IT GETS COMPLICATED

The complexity that shapes this sector

  • Student data moves between learning platforms, administrative systems, and third-party tools adopted independently.

  • Shared devices and accounts make it harder to keep activity attributable to the right person.

  • Research and administrative systems often sit on the same network with very different risk profiles.

  • Budgets for platform security rarely grow at the same pace as the number of connected tools.

HOW WE APPROACH IT

Where we focus first

  • Identity and access — student, staff, and shared-device accounts, and what each can reach.

  • Third-party integrations — the learning tools and platforms connected into core systems.

  • Customer channels — the portals and apps students, parents, and educators use directly.

  • Resilience testing — keeping learning and administrative systems available during peak terms.

STANDARDS & FRAMEWORKS THAT OFTEN APPLY

  • FERPA
  • GDPR
  • ISO 27001
