Cybersecurity in Education

No more guesswork — know your vulnerabilities before attackers do!

Cyber threats are evolving faster than regulations, leaving fintech companies vulnerable. 88% of financial organizations say that identifying and managing cyber risks is their biggest security challenge. (Accenture) Without a proactive approach, compliance gaps and unaddressed vulnerabilities turn into costly security breaches.

We assess your security maturity, review event logs, and simulate attack scenarios — turning complex data into clear, actionable steps.

• The rising threats in cybersecurity in education are evident — institutions saw a 105% increase in ransomware attacks in 2024, with outdated systems and limited budgets favoring vulnerabilities.
• Comprehensive vulnerability assessment: We identify vulnerabilities across your entire IT infrastructure using advanced scanning tools.
• Simulated attack scenarios: Run real-world simulations to test your defenses against modern threats.
• Detailed risk reports: Get clear, actionable reports that highlight critical vulnerabilities and mitigation measures.

No more guesswork — know your vulnerabilities before attackers do!

Secure your devices — stop threats before they start!

With 80% of educational institutions expected to be affected by ransomware in 2024, endpoints remain a prime target. Our managed protection uses advanced threat detection, real-time monitoring, and automated responses to protect every device — from student tablets to administrative systems — securing your entire network.

• Real-time threat detection: Identify and block malware, ransomware and phishing attempts instantly.
• Patch management: Automate updates to eliminate vulnerabilities on all devices.
• Endpoint encryption: Encrypt data on every device to prevent unauthorized access.
• Device inventory control: Maintain an accurate inventory of all connected devices.
• Incident reporting: Get detailed reports on every security incident so you can act quickly.

No more downtime — keep your campus connected!

DDoS attacks disrupted thousands of online courses in 2023. Devox uses next-gen firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and traffic filtering to prevent network overload and ensure uninterrupted teaching and operations.

• Advanced Firewall Protection: Implement next-generation firewalls to block malicious traffic and unauthorized access.
• DDoS Attack Defense: Deploy proactive DDoS defense to prevent service disruptions.
• Intrusion Detection Systems: Continuously monitor for unauthorized access attempts and anomalies.
• Traffic filtering and load balancing: Ensure stable performance by filtering malicious traffic and balancing loads.
• Secure VPN access: Provide encrypted remote access for staff and students and ensure a secure connection.

Secure your sensitive data — even if it is misused!

Data breaches in education are on the rise, putting financial and personal information at risk. The average cost of a data breach in the education sector amounted to 3.65 million dollars in 2024 (IBM).

We implement end-to-end encryption for data at rest and in transit to ensure stolen data remains unusable to attackers.

• End-to-end encryption: Protect sensitive student data both during storage and transmission.
• Encryption key management: Securely generate, store and rotate encryption keys.
• Data masking: Hide sensitive information from unauthorized users, even during processing.
• Access auditing: Track who has accessed encrypted data and when.
• Secure backup encryption: Ensure that all backup data is encrypted to reduce the risk of data breaches.

Protect yourself from the invisible threats lurking in your company.

Nearly 36% of education security breaches are due to insider threats. Our solutions monitor user activity, detect unusual behavior, and prevent unauthorized access before damage occurs.

• Comprehensive insider risk profiling: Identify high-risk individuals based on behavioral analysis, access patterns and historical activity.
• Continuous behavior monitoring: Track user actions across endpoints, cloud services and internal networks and create baselines to detect anomalies immediately.
• Dynamic access control: Implement real-time access controls and dynamically grant or revoke permissions based on risk levels and user roles
• AI-powered threat detection: Leverage machine learning models trained on education-specific threats to detect subtle deviations that indicate insider risk.
• Incident Reconstruction & Prevention: Conduct thorough post-incident analysis and reconstruct every step of an intrusion to strengthen defenses and prevent recurrence.

Secure every app, every platform!

As EdTech becomes increasingly common, the number of cloud security breaches is also rising, making the security of cloud computing in higher education a critical priority for universities and research institutions.

• Secure APIs: Protect API endpoints from unauthorized access with strict protocols.
• Multi-factor authentication: Enforce MFA for all cloud-based tools to prevent breaches.
• Real-time alerts: Receive instant notifications of suspicious cloud activity.
• Data encryption in the cloud: Encrypt data stored and transmitted via cloud platforms
• Cloud access control: Manage and monitor who is accessing cloud-based resources at all times.

Empower your employees — your first line of defense!

Cybercriminals know that humans are the weakest link in security. 55% of cybersecurity professionals report increased stress due to the growing number of security incidents caused by humans.

Phishing continues to be the top attack vector. We offer hands-on training for employees and students to learn how to detect and defend against cyber threats and minimize human error.

• Phishing simulations: Regular testing to help employees and students recognize and avoid email scams.
• Workshops: Interactive training sessions that cover important cybersecurity practices such as password hygiene and safe browsing.
• Incident reporting exercises: Simulations where you practice reporting security incidents quickly and accurately.
• Role-based training: Tailored training modules for different roles, from IT staff to administrative personnel.
• Updated materials: Regularly updated training content that addresses the latest cyber threats and ensures your organization is informed and prepared.

Because in cybersecurity, prepared employees are your best defense.

Secure your digital campus ecosystem — from classroom technology to building control.

IoT devices improve learning capabilities but also increase the attack surface. As campuses become more connected, so does the attack surface. 99.3% of smart home and IoT attacks exploit known vulnerabilities, Bitdefender reports. Unsecured devices — from interactive whiteboards to HVAC systems — can become gateways for cybercriminals, compromising both data and physical security.

We secure all connected devices with strict access controls, continuous monitoring, and automated threat detection.

• Zero-trust device authentication: Ensure that all connected devices — from smart boards to HVAC systems — continuously authenticate before accessing the network.
• Micro-segmented networks: Divide IoT networks on campus into secure zones to contain threats and minimize lateral movement in the event of a compromise.
• Real-time IoT threat intelligence: Deploy tools that scan, detect and respond to IoT-specific threats such as unauthorized firmware changes and rogue devices.
• Granular access protocols: Assign device-specific access rights to ensure that only vetted personnel can modify, control or interact with critical systems.
• Automated threat prevention: Integrate AI-based solutions to automatically detect and neutralize IoT vulnerabilities to ensure seamless learning and campus operations.
