K-12 Edtech Leader Announces End-to-End Student Safety and Device Management Solution

SAN JOSE, Calif., Dec. 12, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Currently protecting over 10 million students in more than 15,000 schools, Securly has announced the release of 360 Cloud, a comprehensive student safety and device management solution for K-12 districts. The 360 Cloud provides districts and schools a unified platform to help them address student safety and device management needs across the school district and at home.

Vinay Mahadik, co-founder and CEO of Securly, explains, "Securly pioneered student safety by building AI-based sentiment analysis and notifications in our flagship Filter product. We continued to build our student safety line with further complementary solutions. The acquisition of MDM and Classroom allowed us to shape the broader student experience online on mobile and 1:1 devices in the classroom. With advancements in the role of technology in K-12 education, the time has come to elevate the conversation from website databases, software agents, and appliances -- a 20-year old commodity technology -- to an end-to-end student safety and online experience. With our 360, Safety, and 1:1 Cloud solutions, Securly brings comprehensive student safety and 1:1 management solutions to districts for the first time ever."

360 Cloud is the only solution offered to the K-12 market that addresses all three needs of school districts: safety, management, and community. The breadth of solutions offered touch all aspects of students' online experiences -- risk analysis for suicide and violence, in-school and at-home web filtering, classroom learning, school device management, and more. 360 Cloud enables administrators, families, and teachers to work together in partnership for students' overall success by providing tools for online protection, educational empowerment, and emotional safety.

K-12 districts can access the following products with 360 Cloud:

        district. AI-based monitoring of bullying, self-harm, and violence.
