Data Security Solutions for Education
The schools, colleges, universities, and research institutions you rely on are secured by Thales
The education sector is going through an accelerated technological transformation triggered by the pandemic, enabling better remote learning, improving research and development, increasing collaboration, and overall deploying a more agile digital infrastructure to support their growing needs. However, significant amounts of sensitive data from thousands of students, faculty, and employees, as well as research and development data, flow through these institutions’ systems and an increasingly complex hybrid IT infrastructure.
Schools, colleges, universities, and research institutions face the challenge to protect the growing amounts of sensitive data essential to their success while continuing to innovate and enable better learning and research opportunities for students and faculty.
