Cybersecurity Program
Develop and enhance your institution’s cybersecurity and privacy programs.
Through the EDUCAUSE Cybersecurity Program, you can find the tools, resources, and peer connections you need to learn about, better understand, or help promote information security and privacy to everyone across your campus, including institutional leadership, students, faculty, staff, and external partners.
Find effective practices and solutions.
Establishing effective information security and privacy programs can help your college or university understand the risks it faces, the secure methods it should use, and the precautions it should take to keep campus constituents safe and institutional data protected.
In turn, these programs can help you identify your key messages, know who your audiences are, and determine how and when you will communicate with these audiences.
With the help of the EDUCAUSE member-led Higher Education Information Security Council (HEISC), you’ll find valuable resources and events below, whether you are developing a new program at your institution or enhancing an existing one.
-
Stay informed on the latest issues and trends with research, blog posts, comprehensive guides, and events.
-
Connect with your peers and make an impact through volunteer opportunities, online communities, or face-to-face offerings.
-
Plan and promote your next security or privacy awareness campaigns with ready-made content and toolkits.
"We have used the Information Security Guide to inform our departmental decisions. The guide is an invaluable tool that provides effective practices and solutions for higher education information security practitioners, and the Hot Topics area is a great resource when evaluating emerging threats."
