Ransomware Protection and Backup Security for Education

Schools, colleges, and universities manage huge volumes of data that impact the safety, wellbeing, and futures of students — not to mention complex financials and other sensitive data. Keeping this information safe is absolutely essential, and Asigra can help.

What Will You Do When You’re Locked Out of Your System?

When disaster strikes, every minute counts for your students and your institution. Unfortunately, recovering from a ransomware attack isn’t always as simple as restoring your latest backup. Your team is using a growing constellation of devices, networks, physical and virtual machines, and SaaS solutions with a range of data storage protocols. It may not be possible to stop malicious code from entering your environment, but with Asigra’s Tigris Secure Backup Platform you can hunt it and eliminate it — even advanced ransomware hiding dormant in your backups.

Protection Beyond Ransomware

Business Continuity

Educational institutions may not be the same as traditional businesses, but the impact of data loss can be just as devastating. Prevent potential damage to your students, employees, and bottom line with Asigra’s industry-leading data protection.

Cloud Applications

If cloud-based software is a part of your toolset, you may be at additional risk of data loss — but that doesn’t have to be the case.

Compliance Management

Student records and sensitive financial information are carefully regulated, but data governance is.

Backup Storage

Every institution has unique data storage needs. Whether you require on-premises backups or cloud storage to protect your data, Asigra offers the industry’s most secure and recovery-ready storage for your backups.

When Student Data is at Stake, Manageability Matters

In complex campus IT environments, easy-to-manage backup security tools have a number of benefits. Tigris’ agentless functionality means you don’t have to install software on every source machine, decreasing your attack surface and helping endpoint devices run faster. A single, flexible management console gives you full visibility across different buildings, departments, and functions so you can manage it all in the way that's best for your organization.
