Protecting School Districts with Threat Containment
Education IT has seen major adjustments with the rise of remote learning and advances in technology. And they're making these changes as the risk of cyber-attacks grow. Download this insightful solution brief showing how HP's Threat Containment simplifies security management across school offices and students' homes to protect vulnerable endpoints.
What is Endpoint Isolation?
Endpoint Isolation is a security approach that uses micro-virtual machines (µVMs) to contain potentially risky tasks on Windows PCs. Each task, such as web browsing or opening attachments, is executed within its own µVM, preventing malware from affecting the main system or network. Once the task is completed, the µVM is deleted, effectively eliminating any embedded threats.
How does Threat Containment benefit school districts?
Threat Containment through Endpoint Isolation offers several benefits for K-12 schools, including inherent protection from malware, improved visibility into attack attempts, enhanced security efficiency by reducing high-priority IT tickets, a better end-user experience, and compliance support. This approach allows students and faculty to work confidently without the constant worry of cyber threats.
What options does HP offer for Endpoint Protection?
HP offers two main solutions for K-12 schools: HP Sure Click Enterprise, which provides advanced threat containment with customizable policies for larger districts, and HP Wolf Pro Security, designed for smaller districts with simplified management. Both solutions aim to improve endpoint protection while accommodating the varying needs of school districts.
