Self-evaluation audit
Our Self-Evaluation Audit is a comprehensive questionnaire designed to help you understand your IT systems, processes, and potential cybersecurity risks. On completion, you receive a gap analysis report based on standards set by UK bodies such as the Department for Education. The self-evaluation audit will give you a series of suggestions and actions which will help you improve cyber resilience within your school or trust. Secure Schools Certified offers a range of solutions to help you match and exceed these government standards, such as phishing simulations, awareness training and policy builders.
External vulnerability scan
Test the school's offensive security by scanning and analysing vulnerabilities existing in the IT systems. Our team uses the tools that attackers use during the early stages of some attacks.
Assessor-led audit
The assessor-led audit process involves gathering comprehensive information from various sources to thoroughly understand your IT systems, processes, culture, and overall cybersecurity risk. We assess all collected data to create an in-depth report that is suitable for presentation to any stakeholder within your school or trust.
