Empowering Higher Education Through Data Centric Security: From Defense to Offense

The 2024 Verizon Data Breach Report revealed a staggering 10,626 breaches across industries—double the previous year’s count. As higher education institutions safeguard sensitive student records (FERPA), healthcare information (HIPAA), and research data (CMMC/ITAR), traditional defensive cybersecurity approaches are proving insufficient.

Network with peers over dinner and cocktails and explore how complementary solutions provide end-to-end risk management and data security for the modern enterprise.

Data-Centric Security: A Paradigm Shift in Higher Education Protection 

While conventional cybersecurity primarily plays defense—building walls around data and preventing information from leaving protected environments—Data Centric Security represents a fundamental shift to playing offense. Rather than merely blocking threats, this approach embeds protection within the data itself, allowing information to flow securely beyond institutional boundaries through granular policy and access controls.


This offensive strategy gives institutions agency over their information, enabling collaboration, research sharing, and student data portability without sacrificing security or compliance. Your data remains protected and controlled regardless of where it travels—fundamentally transforming how higher education can operate in an interconnected world.


Join us for this exclusive, invitation-only dinner alongside the Educause Cybersecurity and Privacy Professionals Conference in Baltimore. This intimate gathering will unite higher education cybersecurity leaders to explore how Data Centric Security enables institutions to proactively secure information while simultaneously expanding its utility and reach.


Seats are limited. Reserve your spot now to engage in this transformative conversation and connect with peers over exceptional dinner and cocktails at Cinghiale.
