Protect millions of students across your school network
State education departments operate centralised IT governance across thousands of schools — single sign-on, shared platforms, and student device deployments. In one documented Horizon3 K-12 case, a ransomware-exposed file share was reachable in under 2 minutes. NodeZero validates that your network segmentation and access controls protect student and parent data at scale.
Your specific challenges
Massive attack surface
Thousands of schools, student devices, BYOD, teacher laptops, and shared computer labs. Common credential exposure — shared passwords, credentials circulated by email, inactive service accounts.
Attack paths measured in minutes
Horizon3.ai documented a K-12 case where a ransomware-exposed file share was reachable in under 2 minutes through weak permissions.
Breach notification obligations
Eligible data breaches involving student and parent personal information trigger notification under the Privacy Act's Notifiable Data Breaches scheme for non-government schools it covers. Public schools sit outside the Privacy Act and fall under state or territory privacy law.
Built for your situation
Statewide segmentation validation
Prove that student networks cannot access administrative systems across your entire school network.
Ransomware path discovery
NodeZero finds the attack paths ransomware operators exploit — credential harvesting, lateral movement, access to file servers — so you can close them before an attacker uses them.
Statewide deployment at scale
One platform across all schools. Consistent methodology, comparable results, centralised reporting for department leadership.
