Advances in technology have enabled access of information from any device, anywhere, and at any time possible. Thanks to the additional workload deployments for both, physical and virtual environments complexity of network infrastructure has increased. Education institutions consist of both, on-premise and cloud-based storage facilities. However, on-premise data centers, compared to cloud-based platforms, are prone to cyber-attacks. Most of these attacks are made by taking complete control of the physical infrastructure such as the server, storage, and networking appliances installed in an on-premise data center.

"The active adoption of cloud computing, offered by vendors such as Amazon, Microsoft, and many others, by education institutions has also led to the increasing focus on cyber-crimes toward cloud-based storage facilities. The increase in cyber-crimes have made it imperative for the education ecosystem to use data security tools in the form of applications and software, for storing data and enabling faster processing of business-related critical information," said Jhansi Mary, one of Technavio's lead analysts for education technology.
