Education

Colleges and universities process are under extreme pressure to protect the large amounts of personal information they collect from students, faculty, staff and the general public. These institutions collect and process personal information through their daily business of admissions, research, student loans, campus retail establishments and other business conducted on campus. The shear volume of this sensitive data makes colleges and universities prime targets for security breaches.

 

Examples of regulations applicable to education include: Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), and Payment Card Industry Standard (PCI).
