Forti-K-12 Focus: Solving security issues faced in education and beyond

Digital innovation technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT) and Chromebook devices are rapidly being adopted to enrich student learning experiences. When implementing these technologies, there is a requirement for high–quality and efficient network security. This is because cyberattackers are becoming more innovative and are compromising the personal and financial data stored by schools. Network security is further threatened by common issues such as unknown mobile devices accessing the network, ageing networks, and lack of awareness of cyberthreats among students and staff.  

Fortinet’s Security Fabric is a solution that provides easy-to-manage, affordable, and automated security protection for schools. It supports digital learning infrastructure, student online safety and compliance, and distributed districts. With architecture that was built according to the needs of public and private schools, Fortinet and Saasyan are the ideal K-12 security partners providing a complete end-to-end safeguard to keep students safe.  

Join Wavelink and Saasyan as we discuss how the Fortinet Security Fabric solution delivers the security required to support student learning.
