Schools have become a prime target for cybercriminals, with phishing now the biggest threat. In fact, 89% of UK primary and secondary schools experienced a phishing attack last year, the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology reveals. 40% of higher education institutions also reported serious repercussions after phishing attacks, such as, data breaches or financial loss. So, what makes schools such attractive phishing targets? The answer lies in the fact that they often store a lot of sensitive data, but lack the IT resources to properly protect it. The good news is teachers do have the power to fight back against phishing.
