Education requires a different approach to security
Learning is no longer confined to the walls of classrooms, hallways, or auditoriums – and nor should your security. Keeping students, teachers, and education leaders secure is our mission. We do so with an open and integrated security system focused on mitigating risk, protecting data, and ensuring visibility across all devices, platforms, and architectures.

Whether students and teachers have a laptop, tablet, Chromebook, iOS device, or a desktop computer, all devices are at risk. Between January 2020 – April 2020, the education community saw a 1,114% increase in cloud threats due to COVID-19 — making student devices a highly attractive and sought-after target for hackers. McAfee's MVISION Mobile Advanced is the first and only comprehensive, on-device, proactive security solution that uses real-time technology to detect and prevent attacks on millions of iOS and Android devices.
