IT Risk Audit

In today’s digital age, where technology is integral to every aspect of your school, mitigating IT risks is crucial. An IT risk audit proactively identifies, assesses, and manages potential threats to your IT infrastructure and data assets. Here’s why you should consider our comprehensive IT audit:

Identifying Vulnerabilities
Uncover weaknesses in your IT systems, networks, and processes early to prevent cyber threats and operational disruptions.

Protecting Sensitive Data
 Ensure compliance with GDPR, KCSIE and other regulations while safeguarding sensitive data from breaches and penalties.

Mitigating Financial Risks
Identify potential impacts of IT incidents like system outages or breaches to minimise financial repercussions.

Enhancing Business Continuity
Assess IT resilience and implement measures to maintain uninterrupted service delivery during disruptions.

Supporting Strategic Decision-Making
Gain insights to prioritise technology investments and align IT strategy with business objectives.

Demonstrating Due Diligence
Reassure stakeholders of your commitment to cybersecurity and compliance through regular audits.

Compliance with DfE Recommendations
Ensure you are implementing the right solutions as recommended by the DfE Digital Standards for schools.

In summary, an IT risk audit is an essential investment in protecting your organisation’s digital assets, reputation, and long-term success. Strengthen your cybersecurity, operational resilience, and regulatory compliance with our proactive approach to managing IT risks.

RAG Rated Audit

Our audits are highly detailed and cover around 70 key areas within an IT service and infrastructure. By using a thorough methodology, we deliver a very detailed and effective RAG rated document that can drive change in your school. 

We go one step further with this service for MAT’s as we issue individual audit documents for each school as well as a MAT executive overview for the trust. These MAT view dashboards can be maintained as live documents as school audits are added.

 

DfE Standards

TECHTRIO’s Risk Audit service ensures schools and colleges comply with DfE digital standards through thorough assessments. This includes evaluating network infrastructure, internet bandwidth, network and Wi-Fi. Cybersecurity measures like firewalls, anti-virus software, and data encryption are rigorously reviewed to protect sensitive information. Through detailed compliance audits, TECHTRIO evaluates if educational institutions meet DfE requirements effectively and efficiently.

 

Impartiality

At TECHTRIO, we ensure neutrality by abstaining from bidding on projects resulting from our risk audits. After conducting assessments for clients, we do not participate in the bidding process for implementing recommended solutions. This practice ensures impartiality and avoids conflicts of interest, focusing solely on providing objective assessments and recommendations that serve our clients’ best interests.

 

Clear Reports

We conduct thorough individual school risk audits focusing on IT infrastructure, cybersecurity, and service delivery. Our assessments provide clear RAG rated reports outlining risks and tailored recommendations to improve operations and meet educational standards effectively.

 

Trust Overview

We provide a comprehensive MAT (Multi-Academy Trust) overview by conducting individual school IT risk audits and neatly compiling all information in one place. This approach allows us to assess each school’s IT infrastructure, cybersecurity measures, digital literacy programs, and compliance with educational standards. By consolidating these audits into a unified overview, we offer MATs a clear picture of overall IT health, identify common issues across schools, and provide tailored recommendations to enhance IT efficiency and security across the trust.
