Safe Schools, Vulnerable Data

Locked doors are the front line of physical safety, but in 2026, the "back door" to your school is digital.

For most superintendents and principals, student safety starts at the perimeter. We check the locks, we monitor the cameras, and we vet the visitors. But there is another access point that often goes overlooked until it’s too late: the sensitive personal data stored in your district’s digital ecosystem.

The Invisible Threat: Is Your Data Truly Locked?

While physical security protects bodies, data security protects futures. Student records, health information, and staff data are high-value targets for modern cyber threats. The "cloud" has made education more accessible, but it has also created new vulnerabilities that a standard firewall can’t always catch.

Think about your current standing:

• How would your district perform during a surprise security risk assessment (SRA) today?

• If an auditor walked into your server room—or looked at your cloud configurations—would you pass or fail?

• Are you protected from "the cloud" risks like AI-driven phishing, misconfigured storage, or third-party vendor leaks?

For many administrators, the answer is a stressful "I’m not sure."

Don't Wait for a Breach to Find the Gaps

In today's landscape, a security gap isn't just an IT headache—it's a student safety issue. If your data is exposed, the consequences range from identity theft and financial fraud to the total disruption of the learning environment.

coveredELB is here to bridge the gap between physical and digital safety. We understand that school leaders are spread thin, which is why we offer a free Security Risk Assessment (SRA) to help you see exactly where you stand.

Whether the outcome shows a need for better encryption, tighter access controls, or a more resilient cloud strategy, we’ll work with you to find solutions that fit your budget and your mission.
