Process
The MiSecure Operations Team actively identifies tools that address significant, unmet cybersecurity needs in the K–12 environment. While the team continuously scans for such solutions, districts can also propose tools for review using the form at the bottom of the page. Each tool is evaluated based on several factors, including integration capabilities (particularly with CrowdStrike), pricing, performance, and adoption. While MiSecure does not officially endorse or recommend specific products, the tools listed below have been reviewed, and the Operations Team has a high degree of confidence in their potential to strengthen an organization’s cybersecurity posture. Please note that this project does not include funding to cover the cost of any tools.
