School cyber security risks
Children’s data needs your strongest protection.
Student records, medical notes, custody arrangements and photos. A breach affects families, not just the school. Regulators are also looking more closely at how children’s information is collected and used.
-
Student data exposure
Over-shared drives, ex-staff accounts and unvetted apps. We lock down who can see what.
-
AI in the classroom
Staff and students paste information into AI tools every day. We set approved tools and data rules aligned with the Australian Framework for Generative AI in Schools.
-
Term-time downtime
When Wi-Fi or devices fail, lessons stop. We monitor and maintain, and schedule big changes for the holidays.
Child safety and privacy changes for schools
A children’s privacy code is due by December 2026.
The dates that affect your IT and data obligations. We track them so you don’t have to.

Cyber security checklist for schools
How well protected is your students’ data?
Six questions that come up in most reviews by your board, parents or the regulator. Your answers stay on this page.
-
Is multi-factor authentication (MFA) enforced for all staff on email and student systems?
Staff accounts are the main target.
-
Is access to student data limited by role?
Not every staff member needs every record.
-
Is there an approved list of AI and edtech tools, checked for privacy?
Unvetted apps are the biggest source of student-data leaks.
-
Is web filtering active on school devices and networks?
A duty-of-care basic.
-
Are student and admin systems backed up, with a tested restore?
Cloud platforms don’t back up your data by default.
-
Does your incident plan include notifying families?
Worth deciding before you need it.
