ESET’s prevention-first approach mitigates the risks of attacks that educational institutions face worldwide. It prevents breaches and protects your data, students and employees.
Ensuring the security of remote access to school networks while allowing the use of personal devices by students and staff, thus expanding the attack surface, poses significant challenges.
Educational institutions are a prime target for attacks, given their typically large numbers of users, so it is necessary to prevent breaches from multiple attack vectors.
The challenge here is to choose cybersecurity solutions that do not place an excessive burden on your hardware, as this can lead to performance issues and user frustration.
82%
of higher education institutions
in the UK identified breaches or attacks in 2023.

“We chose ESET because of [ease of] deployment, the cost of the suite, and overall effectiveness. Not to mention the awesome ‘low footprint’ of ESET. In the past three years, we have caught and stopped over 140,000 infections. Protection of that level speaks for itself.”
