With the education market now being the number one target for cyberattacks across all industries, continuous network monitoring is essential. To address this rapid rise in cyber threats, schools need to investigate and implement a cybersecurity monitoring program to detect and respond to potential threats in real time.
Cybersecurity monitoring is the process of continuously observing the school district’s technology infrastructure and network to assess and detect potential threats and data breaches. Monitoring automates real-time analysis of users, devices, data, and activities, identifying vulnerabilities in the network and updating systems to ensure compliance with all required standards and regulations on a 24/7/365 basis. With a goal to maintain the security of student and staff Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and other digital assets, cybersecurity monitoring provides round the clock protection to stay ahead of cyber threats and bad actors.
Benefits of Cybersecurity Monitoring
Staying ahead of cyber criminals through continuous monitoring allows schools to detect, contain and respond to threats before they cause damage. Detecting and managing potential threats helps protect a school’s sensitive PII data and the overall network. Working with an experienced security partner to adopt a proactive approach using cybersecurity continuous monitoring will enable you to be prepared for any potential attacks.
