Cybersecurity Funding for Higher Education
The American Rescue Plan contains $40 billion for the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund. This is the largest relief package for higher education since the pandemic began.
With limited resources and personnel to prevent threats, colleges and universities rely on federal funding for a safe transition back to the classroom.
As professors and administrators have done their best to adapt to the circumstances of the pandemic, cyber criminals have targeted institutes of higher education, compromising personal data and daily operations of many schools.
Join us for a complimentary webinar to learn from cybersecurity and funding experts about:
- Current and future trends in cybersecurity for Higher Education, including for school-based health and nontraditional post-secondary instruction
- Strategies and solutions for securing newly extended distant learning networks
- Federal funding outlook for 2021, including how to navigate the American Rescue Plan, and special considerations for Tribal Universities and HBCUs
Register now to learn how to leverage federal funding to "future proof" your school's cybersecurity infrastructure.
