Netskope for Higher Education

Cloud adoption has changed the way schools work and manage data. Higher education institutions have been quick to move to the cloud because of benefits such as availability, scalability, and cost reduction. A majority of web and app traffic is encrypted making it extremely difficult to inspect and take appropriate actions using legacy tools. Appliances are overloaded, reports lack necessary details, and understaffed exhausted teams comb through multiple consoles to piece an incident together. Many institutions are rampant with student BYOD and IoT devices that can’t have a client or certificate installed. The overhead of protecting and managing these devices puts more stress on teams that are already stretched thin. Breaches aren’t slowing down, and higher ed continues to be targets for ransomware attacks, trojans, and data breaches. Despite these growing challenges, the budget and team size stay the same.

Thanks to Netskope there is a streamlined way to address all of these challenges in one platform.
