Due to new technologies and a new generation of advanced security threats, it’s paramount that education institutions reevaluate their traditional security methodologies.
Education Institutions have distinct user groups – students, faculty and staff – that require separation from one another and the ability to collaborate. These Institutions are faced with the following unique challenges:
Regulatory Compliance: Many institutions have to comply with standards such as PCI and HIPAA since they accept credit cards and store student personal information.
Limited budget: Faced with protecting a complex and widespread infrastructure, many educational organizations do not have the resources to implement a robust security program.
Lack of governance and risk management: Institutions typically operate as a decentralized model, with individual academic silos acting autonomously from one another.
Open network access: Increasing numbers of users, and the influx of computing devices combine to place high demands on IT infrastructure.
