Malware is one of the most critical threats hitting the education sector. And endpoint resilience is an imperative.
Educational institutions are embarking on a digital transformation by adopting technology that provides teachers and students with an interactive and engaging way to access curriculum. As a result, learning establishments have now adopted endpoint devices that are exposed to a multitude of environments, from heterogeneous operating systems to open networks. This trend has created a positive shift in how instruction is facilitated in the classroom. It has also pushed the modern endpoint forward as the new front line of defense against cyberthreats.
You’ve done everything right: moved from break/fix to managed services, increased your security offerings, and reinforced protections for your customers. But have you double checked your own doors? MSPs are value-rich targets—cyber criminals don’t have to go after individual clients when they can get them all in one fell swoop.
