Phishing remains the #1 way hackers breach school districts

'It has been one of the most useful tools we have adopted. The platform is clear, and the phishing simulations are easy to run. The impact is visible. If a school wants to raise awareness and build better habits quickly, this is an effective way.'


Mark Oldham, School District IT Manager

Run phishing simulations the right way

Many organizations approach phishing simulations as a 'gotcha' exercise, a way to catch 'weak' employees.

 

In a school setting, this approach is catastrophic. It erodes the trust between staff and leadership, creates a culture of fear, and ultimately makes people less likely to report suspicious activity for fear of looking misinformed.

 

By following this strategic framework, you will use a method and approach that has been tried and tested by thousands of others in K-12 education, in a way that will positively impact culture and reduce your risk of cyber attacks.

 

Parents, government bodies, and insurance providers now view cybersecurity maturity as a baseline requirement for operating effectively, not an optional extra.
