Protecting The Future Of Tomorrow

Education Penetration Testing

Protect Sensitive Data

Schools and universities store vast amounts of personal and financial information. Penetration testing identifies vulnerabilities that could expose this data to cybercriminals.

Prevent Academic Disruption

Cyberattacks can disrupt learning environments by shutting down networks or compromising systems. Testing ensures your defenses are robust enough to prevent such disruptions.

Meet Compliance Standards

Educational institutions often need to comply with regulations like FERPA, PCI DSS, or GDPR. Penetration testing helps validate compliance by identifying and addressing security gaps.

Protecting Schools, Universities, and Educational Organizations

Raxis provides tailored penetration testing for schools and universities to secure networks, protect sensitive data, ensure compliance, and maintain uninterrupted operations.

Our Penetration Testing as a Service (PTaaS) offering, Raxis Attack, provides continuous monitoring of your cybersecurity risks through the Raxis One portal. This allows you to track vulnerabilities in real-time, access expert guidance, and retest after remediation efforts—all without waiting for annual assessments.

Combat Evolving Threats

From phishing campaigns to ransomware attacks, educational organizations are frequent targets of cybercriminals. Regular penetration testing ensures your defenses evolve with the threat landscape.

Importance of Segmentation Testing in Education

Network segmentation is critical for educational institutions to isolate sensitive systems like student databases or payment processing environments from broader networks used by students and staff.

It’s Not Just a Scan

Raxis’s US-based experts go beyond basic scans, using real-world exploitation and data exfiltration techniques to uncover hidden risks. Our hands-on approach, guided by industry frameworks, delivers actionable insights to strengthen your security posture.
