    • We will strive to be better because we know it makes you better!

By remaining vigilant and focused on the evolving world of cybersecurity, we will ensure that the devotion to your entity’s ecosystem does not become just another responsibility or project on the long job descriptions of your current technology staff. 

    Building Efficiency
     
    • By working together, SWWC Cybersecurity will drive efficiency into every aspect of the process. Together, we will all share in the costs associated with having a specialized staff that is focused on Cybersecurity initiatives and response, thus providing financial efficiency by not having to staff dedicated positions in your organization. Further, by creating these efficiencies, SWWC can ensure mitigation, monitoring and responses are handled on an ongoing basis, and that your entity’s policies and procedures are in place and deployed.  For many organizations, the ability to buy something as critical to your operations as cyber liability insurance makes SWWC Cybersecurity services worth the investment; but it is ultimately our goal to help save your organization time, effort, and costs when taking the long Everest climb to Cybersecurity maturity!

  • K-12 Cyberseucrity Q&A

    Why does the K-12 education sector need to be concerned about cybersecurity?

    Over the past couple of years, the K-12 education has been a major target for hackers. School districts hold an immense amount of personally identifiable information on both students and staff that is more valuable to hackers, all located in one easy-to-access spot. For years, school districts haven’t had the funds or resources to fund a focus directly on cybersecurity, which has led to many cyber incidents around the area, such as multiple phishing attacks, ransomware encrypting all your district's data, climate control manipulation that damages gym floors, and many more.
