Abnormal for Higher Education
Sophisticated Email Attacks Put Schools at Risk
Universities are home to student information, intellectual property, and sensitive research data. They also have large email attack surfaces, including staff, faculty, students, alumni, vendors, partner institutions, and more. That’s why schools are increasingly popular targets for advanced email attacks that can cost millions to remediate.
Sophisticated Email Attacks Put Schools at Risk
Modern credential phishing, ransomware, business email compromise, and account takeover attacks get past legacy defenses. Every threat that reaches the inbox puts colleges and universities at risk for data breaches, FERPA violations, IP theft, financial losses, reputational damage, and loss of public trust. And while security awareness training is beneficial, ensuring that thousands of students know how to spot an attack can be exceedingly difficult.
