Overview

Strata Information Group provides cybersecurity consulting and IT services specifically for colleges and universities. The company performs penetration tests to simulate cyber-attacks and conducts audits to ensure institutions meet privacy regulations, while also managing large-scale software deployments. Unlike general security firms, it focuses exclusively on the higher education sector and offers a dedicated learning platform, SIGConnect 365, for staff training. Its goal is to help schools protect sensitive data and maintain secure technology systems through long-term partnerships and specialized expertise.
