An annual assessor-led audit of your IT infrastructure
Our assessor-led audit process involves gathering comprehensive information from various sources to thoroughly understand your IT systems, processes, culture, and overall cybersecurity risk.
We assess all collected data to create an in-depth report that is suitable for presentation to any stakeholder within your school or trust. This report not only identifies cybersecurity risks but also offers strategically actionable recommendations to mitigate these risks. Additionally, it provides ‘assessor-led audit’ assurance to your leadership and governance teams.
Secure Schools Verified offers a range of solutions to help you match and exceed nationally recognised standards, with phishing simulations, external vulnerability scans, awareness training and policy builders all included at this tier.
