Mission
​
School districts are required to protect against cyber threats. Unfortunately, many small districts just don't have the means or dedicated cyber roles to achieve that requirement. Deploying an effective cyber program requires the application of a comprehensive security framework that covers all the facets of cybersecurity. That is where Aegis K12 can fill the gap. We'll help you develop and manage an effective cybersecurity program that will meet the required governance, risk management, and compliance standards. In essence, Aegis K12 is dedicated to building your shield to defend against cyber threats.
K-12 Focused
​
Aegis K12 leverages a NIST based security framework for education. This framework was developed by the Cybersecurity Coalition for Education and is directly aligned to the NIST CSF standards. To manage the framework, we use licensed open source GRC software which saves thousands of dollars for school districts. Using this strategy, Aegis K12 provides an effective and affordable solution for educational institutions to enhance their cybersecurity program and keep their schools cyber safe.
