How Managed DDoS Protection Keeps Education and EdTech Platforms Resilient

Dec 31, 2025 By Vinugayathri Chinnasamy In Indusface
Globally, schools and universities now face over 4,300 cyberattacks per week on average, marking a 40% year-over-year increase and making the education sector a prime target for disruptive DDoS attacks. Most educational institutions operate with lean IT teams responsible for infrastructure, user support, and security. This resource constraint makes it difficult to withstand prolonged or application-layer DDoS attacks that can quickly disrupt learning platforms and administrative systems.
