Six in ten secondary schools found a cyber breach or attack last year.

And the duties keep growing: filtering checked on every device each year, the DfE's digital standards by 2030, and insurance conditions you have to meet.

Systech gets your school ready, and keeps it that way.

Filtering and monitoring that follows every device, checked and recorded each year for governors.

Backups, staff training and a response plan in place, the conditions RPA cyber cover for academies depends on.

And a clear plan against the DfE standards, with the big changes scheduled for the summer.

Microsoft specialists, ISO 27001 certified, and holders of Cyber Essentials ourselves.

Book a call, and we'll show you where you stand against the standards, in a summary your governors can use.
