Governance. Security. Infrastructure. Resilience.
Five carefully chosen solutions — helping schools understand cyber risk, choose the protection that fits, build infrastructure that holds up, control who holds the keys, and get back on their feet when something goes wrong.
Five solutions. One strategy.
A reseller with forty logos is a reseller who has not chosen.
A school has to answer for its cyber position to governors and insurers, keep staff and pupils safe on the systems they use every day, control who can get into what, run a network that does not fall over in week three of term, and be able to get everything back when something goes wrong. Those are five different problems, and most of the market sells all of them at once.
Rather than a catalogue, we work on five — one for each problem — and we chose each because it is what we would put in a school of our own.
One for each problem.
Know your position.

Where you stand, what matters most, and the evidence for governors.
Protection on the devices, the mailboxes and the accounts people use.
Who can open what, handed over for the job and closed when somebody leaves.
A network that holds up, so none of the above depends on luck.

What a school ends up holding.
Five screens from Craidd: three from our own tenant and two from a sample academy, so no other school’s data is on show.
The decisions are already made.
Education, and nothing else
Every decision in this business assumes a UK school or trust — the term you are in, the budget cycle, the governing body, and the fact that nobody has a spare afternoon.
A short list, chosen
Five things, one for each problem. We would rather explain why something is not on the list than carry it because a distributor offered it.
Straight advice
We will tell you when you do not need something. The findings Craidd produces stay the same whatever else you buy from us.
One place to buy
One relationship, one invoice, one number to ring — instead of a platform from here, a firewall from there, and nobody who can answer for both.
