Higher education institutions remain a top target for cybercriminals due to the sheer volume and variety of sensitive data they collect and process, from tuition payments to student and alumni PII. Managing cybersecurity across multiple systems, departments, and data touchpoints is a growing challenge, especially as attack methods become more advanced and compliance standards tighten.
Watch our webinar for a practical, forward-looking session on building a secure, compliant cyber stack for higher education. You’ll learn how to protect your institution against malware, ransomware, and data breaches through proven strategies like data devaluation, PCI-validated point-to-point encryption (P2PE), vaultless tokenization, and file-based security.
Whether you’re looking to strengthen your campus perimeter, meet evolving PCI and NACHA requirements, or implement flexible, scalable protection through trusted partners, this session provides actionable steps to safeguard your environment from the point-of-interaction to the cloud.
