Is your Firewall fit for safeguarding your School Network?

In today’s digital-first classrooms, schools face an increase in cyber threats, online risks, inappropriate content access and stricter safeguarding requirements. The need for robust network security has never been greater. Your network firewall is your first line of defence, but not all firewalls are fit for your school network.

The big question is do you have a firewall fit for safeguarding your school network and are you confident of its current protection?
