Modern ways of learning pose unique cybersecurity and IT challenges for educators. From hybrid learning and the increased collection of proprietary personal data, to the rapid build-out of digital infrastructure to support distributed student populations and workers, people have become the target of attackers…and the weakest link in the cybersecurity chain.
As threats focused on education increase – including ransomware, phishing, social engineering, and identity theft – you need a people-centric approach to cyber defense to protect the individuals most likely to be targeted and defend against attacks.
