About the Event

 

Join us for an insightful session exploring how Jisc, Softcat, and CrowdStrike are working together to transform cybersecurity in the UK education sector. This webinar will highlight:

  • Strategic Collaboration: How the Jisc-CrowdStrike agreement, supported by Softcat, simplifies procurement for Higher and Further Education institutions, Research Councils, and public sector organisations. The framework offers streamlined access to CrowdStrike’s Falcon Endpoint Protection Platform, tiered pricing, and flexible licensing—aligned with Jisc’s Managed Security Operations Centre (SOC) strategy.
  • Expert Perspectives:
    • Kieron Newsham (Softcat) will share insights on Softcat’s role in enabling secure, scalable solutions for education.
    • Ajay Chauhan (CrowdStrike) will provide a European Threat Landscape update, drawing from the newly launched CrowdStrike 2025 European Threat Landscape Report, and deliver a short demo showcasing Falcon’s advanced capabilities.
  • Why It Matters: Learn how this partnership delivers confidence, value, and ease for institutions navigating complex cyber threats, while reducing procurement friction and strengthening sector-wide resilience.
