Why Academic Openness and A Rise in Online Classes<br />
Should Invoke A Renewed Focus on Security<br />
By Anthony Bettini, CTO, WhiteHat Security<br />
For decades, researchers and students from around the world have come to study and collaborate,<br />
research and innovate at American universities and colleges under the auspices of academic openness<br />
at our schools. Unfortunately, that academic openness has resulted in universities and colleges becoming<br />
attractive targets for nation-state hackers, cybercriminals, and reportedly, espionage operations. Part of<br />
the reason for this could be because these institutions possess massive amounts of valuable data, as<br />
well as vital information pertaining to government projects and research, personal data of students and<br />
professors, financial and health information and much more.<br />
While higher education has been gradually increasing the number of online classes, the recent global<br />
pandemic has accelerated the process dramatically. Now, universities and colleges have had to quickly<br />
procure or build additional applications to accommodate distance learning and deliver to their students<br />
the same quality educational experiences they would have previously had on campus and in person. The<br />
emergency transition to online classes for students this past spring and the uncertainty for the upcoming<br />
fall adds to risks for security vulnerabilities and compounds the stress for IT administrators, who are<br />
responsible for safeguarding staff and student privacy.<br />
