Education Cyber Security

The main goal of this project is to plan, implement, manage, monitor and upgrade security measures for the protection of Siraj Institute's data, systems and networks, as well as of our clients. In our pursuit of excellence, we found that by helping other educational institutions raise their quality, the benefit is maximized. That is why we also offer services (including cyber security) to several small schools across Ontario as well as throughout Canada.
