Build cybersecurity resilience in your school or trust

Secure Schools Certified is designed to align your school with the latest cybersecurity standards and helps you create a culture of cybersecurity awareness among your staff, governors, and board members. 

Our Certified package is designed for schools and trusts that want to adopt a sector-leading approach to cybersecurity. It provides access to the expected levels of government legislation and guidance.

We're thrilled to share that we've boosted our cybersecurity posture with the help of Secure Schools.

Adopt an approach developed by industry experts

We have refined our approach over years of working with schools and trusts of all sizes. Working solely with the education sector enables us to remain at the forefront of the latest developments and regulations and continuously engage with school and trust leaders to understand and respond to their unique challenges.

Align with government body cybersecurity standards

Our Self-Evaluation Audit is a comprehensive questionnaire designed to help you understand your IT systems, processes, and potential cybersecurity risks.

On completion, you receive a gap analysis report based on standards set by UK bodies such as the Department for Education.

The self-evaluation audit will give you a series of suggestions and actions which will help you improve cyber resilience within your school or trust. Secure Schools Certified offers a range of solutions to help you match and exceed these government standards, such as phishing simulations, awareness training and policy builders.

Discover cybersecurity risks and build resilience

With an External Vulnerability Scan for your school or trust, our team will use the same tools attackers utilise during the early stages of some attacks, scanning and analysing the vulnerabilities of your internet-facing IT systems.

We will then report on the findings to you, with guidance on how you can solve any uncovered vulnerabilities or issues in your systems before cybercriminals have a chance to expose them.
