Webinar: Critical ransomware protection for schools
It’s no secret that ransomware attacks are on the rise, and schools have been particularly vulnerable to this type of threat as they navigate the unique challenges of the COVID era. A recent report showed that nearly 1,000 schools across the U.S. have been affected over 70 separate ransomware attacks in the past year.
For example, Haverhill Public Schools in Massachusetts were hit with a ransomware attack the day before students were supposed to return to in-person learning in April, forcing a shutdown of the district’s computer system, making even remote learning impossible.
Schools of all levels, from K-12 schools to colleges and universities, often struggle with tight budgets and limited IT staff, making ransomware protection a challenge.
