Trusted cybersecurity for education — validated by independent experts

Industry-leading protection verified by independent testing and global analyst recognition.

The reality facing today's schools

Education environments are uniquely exposed to cyber risk

Schools and universities operate some of the most complex IT environments of any industry — thousands of users, unmanaged devices, remote access, and limited internal security resources.

Cyberattacks targeting education are increasing in frequency and sophistication, while IT teams are expected to protect learning continuity, student data, and compliance requirements without expanding staff or budgets.

This creates a critical gap between what schools are responsible for securing — and what they can realistically manage alone.

Your cybersecurity partner in education

Why schools work with EnterpriseAV

Technology alone does not secure an education environment. Successful cybersecurity programs require planning, deployment expertise, and ongoing operational support.

EnterpriseAV works directly with K–12 districts, colleges, and universities to design and manage Sophos-powered security solutions that align with real-world education needs — not generic enterprise assumptions.

As an authorized Sophos reseller, we help you move beyond products and toward outcomes: stronger protection, simpler operations, and confidence that your environment is continuously monitored and defended.

  • Guidance on selecting the right Sophos services for your environment
  • Deployment and integration with existing tools and workflows
  • Ongoing support and optimization as threats and requirements evolve
  • A dedicated team you can call when questions or incidents arise
