K-12 1:1 programs contribute to positive student learning outcomes, but as an endpoint population grows, it’s harder to keep devices safe and secure. Learn how to mitigate the risk in this Cybersecurity Insights episode. Challenge #1: A Wide Attack Surface
School 1:1 programs promise to prepare students for a data-driven world. But for IT security professionals working in K-12, classroom devices pose a challenge. Staff face the daunting task of supporting and securing thousands of devices, with often limited resources and personnel.
Challenge #2: Proving ROI of Classroom Technology
The bar is set high for school technology. To be deemed a success, devices have to be calibrated to meet the demands of everyone who has a stake in student development, from educators and coaches to parents and counsellors.
K-12 IT leaders are expected to be able to demonstrate the return on investment across these different use cases. Endpoint inventory must be pristine. Only then can they qualify for special funds from programs like Student Support and Academic Enrichment (SSAE), or E-Rate program discounts.
The Solution: Quantitative Analysis
School IT teams can meet the challenges of a 1:1 program with quantitative analysis of their digital campus, including measures like web activity, home vs. campus use, as well as lost and stolen devices.
Discover how K-12 IT leaders can maintain device visibility and control, while providing the quantitative detail to secure the longevity of their one-to-one learning program. Secure your digital campus with Absolute Resilience:
