Student Data Protection & FERPA Compliance

Anexet gives schools, colleges, and universities on-premise visibility into how student and staff PII, research, and coursework move — over the web, cloud apps, USB drives, printers, email, and messengers — and the controls to enforce acceptable use.

Why data protection is hard on campus

Shared labs, BYOD, and wide-open internet access make a campus one of the toughest places to keep sensitive data in check.

Institutions hold a deep mix of regulated information — applicant and enrolment records, staff HR and payroll files, exam material, and years of original research. Much of it sits on shared lab machines and personal laptops, and it travels freely to personal cloud accounts, USB sticks, the print room, and chat apps.

Anexet runs entirely inside your own perimeter, so the vendor never touches your data. Agents watch each endpoint, surface how files and the web are actually used, flag risky behaviour, and stop transfers that break your acceptable-use or data-handling rules.

Where campuses lose control

  • Student and staff PII walking out

    Enrolment, financial-aid, and HR records leaking through personal cloud, removable drives, or the print queue — accidentally or on purpose.

  • Research and exam material at risk

    Unpublished research, grant data, and exam papers copied or forwarded before they should ever leave the network.

  • Acceptable use no one can enforce

    Without insight into web, search, and device activity, acceptable-use policy stays on paper instead of in practice across labs and offices.

How Anexet keeps campus data in bounds

One on-premise platform — data-leak prevention, activity monitoring, and IT inventory — shaped around the open, device-heavy reality of education.

Govern the web and see what students and staff search

Anexet records visited sites and search queries and blocks destinations that fall outside policy, so acceptable use is applied the same way in every lab, library, and office instead of left to chance.

Lock down USB, cloud, and the print room

Audit and control removable drives, cloud-storage clients, the clipboard, and printers — and block unauthorised copies, uploads, and prints (Advanced) so enrolment records and research can't quietly leave the endpoint.

Understand activity on shared machines

Activity and productivity monitoring shows which apps and sites are used and for how long, with screenshots and screen recording (Standard) to give IT and security the context they need when an incident on a shared device has to be reviewed.

The same on-premise platform behind every plan — here's how security teams work with it day to day.

Education FAQ

Common questions about running Anexet in schools, colleges, and universities.

How does Anexet protect student records and research?

Anexet tracks how sensitive data — applicant and enrolment records, staff and payroll files, exam material, and research — moves across the web, cloud apps, USB drives, printers, email, and messengers, and can block transfers that break your policies before the data leaves the endpoint.

Yes. Anexet logs visited sites and search queries and blocks destinations outside policy, while activity monitoring with screenshots and screen recording (Standard) shows how apps and the web are used on shared lab and office machines — so acceptable use is applied consistently.

Anexet helps your institution support requirements such as GDPR and regional student-data and PII law by controlling data movement, monitoring access, auditing file operations, and producing incident reports. Anexet itself is not a certification and does not replace your legal or audit assessment.

Yes. Anexet is deployed on-premise inside your own perimeter, so data stays under campus control. The vendor has no access to your data, and an optional on-prem AI model analyzes incidents locally, with nothing sent over the internet.

Pricing is available on request. Tell us about your environment and the number of endpoints, and we'll recommend the right plan — Standard, Advanced, or Premium.
