Information security essentials for higher education

Key takeaways

  • A strong infosec plan focuses on people as much as technology.
  • It’s important to create an institution-wide culture of commitment to security.
  • Cloud offers tremendous potential to improve security, mobility, agility, and scale.

With their rich trove of personal data, higher education institutions are alluring targets for hackers. There’s no single solution, but you can minimise risk by making smart, sustained investments in planning, policymaking, auditing, technology upgrades, and education.
