How can a three-person IT team keep an entire district outfitted with devices that are both usable for all students, and yet provide a customized experience for every one of them? For Port Alberni School District, their secret tool was Intune for Education. In combination with Azure Active Directory, Intune allowed them to have a single sign-on for each of their students and to assign apps to follow that student no matter what device they were using. The result? An easily manageable landscape of devices, all customized to meet individual student needs. Small IT teams don't have to mean restricting the technology available to students.

By |2020-03-03T11:07:31+01:00March 3rd, 2020|Uncategorised|

"In more than 63 percent of data breaches, hackers gain corporate network access through weak, default, or stolen user credentials." Using outdated multiple-password security is like leaving your front door unlocked for attackers.

Microsoft recognizes the importance of identity-driven security and their holistic strategy doesn't stop there. Check out this infographic to learn more.
