Finally a security platform built specifically for schools
Most cybersecurity training tools are built for corporate environments and feel completely out of place in a school context. CyberNut understands K-12 — the scenarios are relevant to educators, the tone is appropriate, and the FERPA/COPPA compliance is baked in from the start rather than an afterthought. Onboarding our 900 staff members was straightforward and the support team was responsive throughout.
Click-through rate dropped from 22% to under 3% in six months
Staff phishing was our biggest security liability. We tried mandatory video training before and it moved the needle slightly but not sustainably. CyberNut's simulation-based approach is different — staff learn in context when they make a mistake rather than sitting through a module they forget by Friday. Six months in, our simulated phishing click-through rate is under 3%. The compliance reporting also makes our annual cyber insurance renewal much easier to document.
