Patch management, compliance evidence, and device posture for schools, colleges, and universities — with a 50% education discount and UK GDPR built in from day one.
Most endpoint management platforms aren't built for schools. The pricing structures assume IT teams with full-time staff and five-figure budgets.
The Department for Education's Cyber Security Standards for Schools require Cyber Essentials certification. Most schools don't have a clear path to the evidence.
Staff laptops, student devices, shared classroom machines, and a server room running Linux. Getting consistent patch visibility across all of them is a real problem.
Many tools store data on US servers. That's a problem when you're processing data about minors. PatchPilot is EEA-hosted with no transatlantic transfers.
A single IT coordinator managing 600 devices across multiple sites. No time for manual patch audits. No budget for a dedicated security team.
Governors and trustees are asking harder questions about cyber risk. "We think we're patched" isn't an answer that satisfies them anymore.
PatchPilot maps device posture and patch state to the frameworks education institutions actually need — not a generic compliance checklist.
Patch currency, firewall, access control, secure configuration — all mapped to Cyber Essentials controls with evidence your assessor can review directly.
The 2023 DfE Cyber Security Standards for Schools align closely with Cyber Essentials. PatchPilot covers the technical controls you're expected to demonstrate.
Patch state and encryption coverage are core GDPR technical safeguards. Evidencing them at audit or following a breach is straightforward with PatchPilot's export.
A.8 Technology controls evidence — patch management, vulnerability management, endpoint configuration — all collected and exportable per ISO 27001 clause.
No locked-behind-paywall compliance features. Every tier includes the same core platform — you pay for devices, not capabilities.
50% off applies to Pro and Business tiers. Minimum 50 managed devices to qualify for education pricing. Schools with fewer than 50 devices: Starter free tier (up to 5 devices) is always free — no discount needed. Annual billing saves an additional 20% on top.
Multi-Academy Trusts managing multiple schools: contact us for MAT volume pricing. Annual billing saves an additional 20%.
