As AI technologies like ChatGPT rapidly integrate into education, they bring both innovation and significant cybersecurity risks. From personalized learning to automated grading, these tools are transforming academic environments—but their use also exposes institutions to data breaches, misinformation, and academic integrity concerns.

This exclusive whitepaper explores the growing cyber threats facing schools and universities using AI-driven technologies. Learn how the open-access nature of educational institutions makes them prime targets for adversarial AI attacks and discover real-world incidents, such as the 2022 breach of 14 UK schools that exposed sensitive student data.

Inside the Whitepaper:

• Key risks related to AI tools like ChatGPT

• Data privacy challenges under GDPR and UK Data Protection laws

• Case studies of real breaches in education

• Best practices: data encryption, EDR tools, and AI-specific protections
