Education
According to the Breach Level Index, educational institutions faced over 120 breaches in 2017. Education data is decentralized and, when compromised, it puts students and employees at risk.
DLP
Protect data from leaks on endpoints, in LANs, in the cloud, and in virtual environments.
Monitor even highly secure channels for leaks (Telegram, WhatsApp, Viber, etc.).
Detailed archiving of incidents.
Safeguard remote workers using Zoom, RDP, TeamViewer, and other services for remote work or access.
This poses a set of certain challenges that must be addressed as part of a data loss prevention program and cyber threat detection:
Comply with standards, regulations and legal requirements
Take preventive measures against cyber crime
Implement insider threat detection tools
Track data usage
The educational sector is a desirable target for insiders and cyber criminals due to the enormous amount of data, such as login credentials, research info, social security numbers and healthcare records.
In order to prove learning outcomes and secure funding, an educational institution has to control the following:
Personal Information (PII, PHI), including CVs of personnel and students
Software audits, including installation, uninstallation and missing software
Fund allocation reports
R&D data
Expenditure plans
External devices and data transmission
Research methodologies
Information access
