Tap. Breach. Regret. How to Stop Mobile Threats in Higher Ed

From student portals and classroom apps to financial aid and campus safety tools, mobile apps are at the heart of today’s higher education experience. But with increased reliance on mobile comes increased risk—and most institutions aren’t scanning their apps for threats.

Higher education is now a top target for phishing and ransomware attacks, many of which exploit mobile devices and unvetted apps. One malicious tap can expose sensitive student data, disrupt operations, or even trigger compliance failures.

Join Zimperium for a practical discussion on how mobile threats are showing up on college campuses—and what you can do about it. We’ll break down real use cases from Higher Ed, demonstrate how attackers exploit mobile vulnerabilities, and walk through how app scanning helps protect your institution before something breaks.

Attendees will learn:

• How student and faculty-facing apps are being targeted in phishing and ransomware campaigns
• Common mobile security blind spots unique to universities and colleges
• Real-world examples of mobile app risks in Higher Ed
