Excited to share the next edition of Heart of Security focused on education institutions, the cornerstone of our society! 💜 As we turn the page on another school year, the opportunity to embed security into the foundation of our education systems has never been more important. Now is the time to prepare for the next chapter with resilience at the core.    From equipping students with the skills to become tomorrow’s defenders, to ensuring schools and universities are safeguarding sensitive data and fostering cyber awareness, we must build a culture of security from the ground up.    Few people capture the importance of this mission like Corey J. L., making him the perfect spotlight for my latest newsletter. Corey’s commitment to advancing resilience and digital safety across the education sector is both inspiring and timely. I hope his work resonates with you as much as it does with me. 💜  

"¡Absolutamente crucial y oportuno! 👏 La seguridad en las instituciones educativas es, sin duda, la piedra angular para proteger no solo datos sensibles, sino también para formar a los futuros ciudadanos digitales. La resiliencia cibernética debe integrarse desde la base, creando una cultura de seguridad que beneficie a toda la sociedad.

Powerful reflections, Vasu Education is where digital trust must begin not just in defending institutions, but in cultivating defenders. The dual role of schools as both protectees and incubators of the future security workforce makes this mission urgent. Corey Lee’s work is proof that resilience starts with relevance: real-world tools, early exposure and purpose-driven talent. Cybersecurity isn’t just a field it’s a civic skillset. Microsoft

We love this!!! As a company we’re extremely focused on building cyber awareness in our local community. What’s one practical way you’ve seen schools successfully build a stronger culture of cyber awareness among students or staff?

Very inspiring Vasu Jakkal a twofold manner to gain by protecting the education system and upskilling the new generation to be passionate about security
