Education institutions lag in data protection - Tara García Mathewson, Education Dive

A new report from Evolve, an IT services company selling cloud space, shows education institutions are more likely to lose critical data than their peer organizations in the business, government, and nonprofit sectors — and more likely to lose it forever. Respondents cited budget constraints for their poor outcomes, according to Campus Technology, and only 42% of respondents thought they had enough money in their disaster recovery budgets. That’s in contrast to 63% of respondents, who thought so in the for-profit realm. http://www.educationdive.com/news/education-institutions-lag-in-data-protection/371507/
