Case Study: Covenant Christian School reduces cybersecurity risks with Secure Schools

'Secure Schools assisted with our Penetration test, which helped us to address key security holes in the environment'

Before partnering with Secure Schools, Covenant Christian School faced a common yet critical vulnerability: staff credentials were exposed on the web after signing up for unauthorised services. The school’s leadership recognised that technical defences alone weren't enough. They needed a way to help staff identify threats and take accountability for the school's digital safety.

The school shifted from a reactive stance to a proactive culture of vigilance. By using Secure Schools, they moved beyond simply fixing problems as they arose, instead focusing on long-term resilience through staff engagement and robust technical assessments.

'I would encourage other schools to consider Secure Schools. They have a competitive offering, a responsive support structure, and a robust toolset that continues to evolve and expand.'

'Secure Schools assisted with our Penetration test, which helped us to address key security holes in the environment'

We had some instances of credentials being found on the web as a result of someone signing up to a service that was untoward, and we knew we had to help staff identify threats. Since using Secure Schools, We have seen more staff reporting potential phishing before taking any actions.

 

Crucially, this wasn't just a win for the IT department. The school began using the platform's data to report directly to the Board of Directors, ensuring that those at the highest level of governance remained fully informed about the school’s cybersecurity posture. In just a few months, the school has transformed its approach to risk, backed by a responsive support structure and an evolving toolset.
