Safer Learning with Google for Education and Chromebooks

Technology leaders face unprecedented challenges as threats to data security in the education sector are at their highest point, here are some facts:

  • 884 million leaked records across the globe in the Education sector, making it the third most affected by data breaches.

  • Over 33% of schools are more likely to say staff resources had to be diverted to deal with a cyber security breach.

  • Ransomware: Target No.1 Educational institutions are the most targeted segment for ransomware in the UK.

  • Only 75% of primary and secondary schools have a cyber security policy.

  • 2x more cyberattacks have affected educational institutions from August 2020 to February 2021.
