Cloud Safeguard for Education from CirrusHQ

For Education institutions and researchers your increasing need for flexible learning and working environments means that security requirements are critical to maintaining productivity and mitigate attacks. The opportunity to attack vulnerabilities within seemingly secure setups means that protection of data, assets, services, or key applications is a concern that may be overlooked. If, or when you are attacked with ransomware: your reputation, and the negative feedback that will be in the public domain, plus the costs and loss of data will be crippling to recover from. Your research data, particularly for researchers in medicine working on vaccines, are of huge value to attackers. Plus, your student data has value by threatening to reveal personally identifiable information at a cost. The need to have a solution in place is critical whether you have been attacked or not. Prioritisation of this risk should be in place and utilising AWS cloud should be your path to mitigating this.

We enable you to mitigate these threats by assisting in the ever-changing demands placed on your infrastructure by these business needs. Whether you have a critical need to react to or if you have proactively tasked with protecting your data, we can help give end-to-end assistance in the solutions needed to secure, back-up, and restore your key systems.

We recommend this product to Institutions that wish to: • Back-up valuable data to AWS • Require assistance on creating a secure AWS 'landing zone' • Working with a 3rd party provider like Rubrik or Veeam to ensure AWS is configured appropriately • Management of costs on AWS • Monitoring, analytics, and management of AWS infrastructure • Disaster recovery processes and orchestration • Immutable backups to protect from cybersecurity/ransomware attacks

Our experts work with you to tailor your backup and restoration needs, working with your 3rd party providers where appropriate, and ensuring your AWS infrastructure is setup securing and aligned to best-practice from day 1. Our method is to provide an end-to-end service in assisting any or all aspects of getting data onto AWS.
