Higher education is rapidly embracing digital transformation, including AI, hybrid learning, cloud platforms and smart campus technologies. But with innovation comes increased cyber risk.
Nearly 80% of institutions have experienced ransomware attacks, and AI adoption continues to accelerate. The challenge is not whether to innovate, but how to do so securely.
TrendAI and Carahsoft recently hosted a webinar featuring higher education cybersecurity leaders for a discussion on how institutions are protecting students, faculty and critical systems while continuing to innovate.
What we discussed:
- Securing AI Adoption: Embedding security and governance into AI from the start
- Managing Cyber Risk in Smart Campuses: Addressing risks across IoT and connected environments
- Ransomware Resilience: Strengthening defenses, response, and recovery strategies
