Tailored cyber assurance for school leaders and tech teams

Sourcing an independent report on the health of your IT infrastructure helps your school make informed decisions on cyber security enhancements.

Technology Teams

Technology Leaders & Network Managers

Identify vulnerabilities before they become compromised. Evaluate secure configurations, user privilege management, patch management, and end-of-life technology assessments.

School Leadership

Heads of School & Bursars

Safeguard your digital learning environment, protect sensitive student data from breaches, and ensure uninterrupted educational continuity.

Boards & Directors

Governors & Trustees

Gain objective, clear risk reports comparing your school's security posture against international standards to guide budget and infrastructure decisions.

Evolving cyber threats in educational environments

Schools are increasingly targeted by sophisticated cyber attacks, exposing sensitive data and disrupting critical online learning platforms. Legacy systems, unpatched software, and complex user permissions often leave blind spots that internal teams lack the bandwidth to continuously detect.

Trusted by over 800 organisations worldwide

Mike Ward, Head of IT — The Dean Trust

"They felt like an extension of our IT support team for the time they were with us and were never judgemental on the approach we take with our systems and security. I'd have no concerns about recommending them (and using their services) again in the future."

Understanding Cyber Security Testing

What systems and devices are covered in the Cyber Security Test?

+
The test covers your school's internal and external network infrastructure, internet-facing servers, websites, user privilege configurations, patch levels, and end-of-life hardware/software. 

How does this differ from a full Penetration Test or Security Assessment?

+
Cyber Security Testing focuses on discovering and scanning for vulnerabilities across your infrastructure. Penetration testing actively attempts to ethically exploit those flaws, while a full Security & Systems Assessment includes qualitative staff interviews and broader operational audits. 

What deliverables will our school receive after the testing?

+
You will receive an independent, high-level report detailing identified vulnerabilities, priority risk ratings, actionable next steps for mitigation, and benchmarking insights against similar educational institutions.
