What Educational Institutions Need to Do to Protect<br />

Themselves From <strong>Cyber</strong> Threats?<br />

By Cyril James, Founder and CEO, Secure Triad<br />

The COVID 19 pandemic and the subsequent lockdown have forever changed how we socially mingle<br />

and live our lives. The effects are felt in our personal and professional lives as well.<br />

A major impact is felt in the education fraternity who as a response to the threats posed by the pandemic,<br />

has adopted an online learning and training format.<br />

The use of technology in the education sector is no longer considered a novelty but a norm, making them<br />

prime targets for cyber-attacks.<br />

Though online learning has made it possible for students across the world to continue their education<br />

from the safety of their homes. It has added new complexities to the cyber security challenges faced<br />

by educational institutes.<br />

The current pandemic has handed cybercriminals tailor-made opportunities for attacking the institutes'<br />

network and its teachers and students as well.<br />

Though this may not be a challenge unique to the education sector alone, it poses a larger threat. Unlike<br />

office employees, students lack exposure and training in dealing with school cyber security.<br />
