Avanan Protects Educational Institutions from Advanced Threats

Protect Students, Faculty, and Reputation from Phishing and Malware

Students are a highly-vulnerable population for hackers. Avanan helps to protect both them and the institution from the costly ramifications of a breach.

Faculty have enough work with classes and research. Passive, pre-inbox protection from Avanan means they don’t even see phishing emails. At the same time, they can easily report attacks that get through to IT, who can use the Search & Destroy™ post-delivery forensic tools to pull all malicious files from the entire collaboration environment in a few clicks.

Reputation is the basis of trust in the educational system. Avanan helps to prevent data leakage, account takeover, and compromises that extend across file-sharing, email, and collaboration with a one-click installation that is easy on staff and budget.

Instant One-Click Deployment

Avanan connects to both Office 365 and G Suite using an encrypted API protocol. Every Avanan client has a highly-secure, dedicated environment. At the same time, the Avanan security layer is additive to default security measures, and invisible to hackers — preventing them from custom-crafting attacks for specific institutions.

Multi-Tenancy Support

Many schools and universities have separate tenants: one for faculty, and another for staff. The Avanan dashboard unifies reporting, remediation, and policy enforcement in a single pane of glass. Security Operations and IT teams can manage and secure all environments with one threat interface.
