WhiteHat Security, an independent, wholly owned subsidiary of NTT Ltd. and a leading application security provider, announced that it will offer free application scanning services to any education institution to support secure online learning.

Pivoting to new learning platforms has put additional stress on IT departments and caused concern around the security of their online learning resources.

The WhiteHat team aims to help the education sector ensure the applications used to teach students are secure - and to defend against evolving cyberattacks.

"It's imperative that applications used across higher education institutions, school districts and online learning platforms remain safe for students now and in the future," said Craig Hinkley, CEO of WhiteHat Security.

"At WhiteHat, we recognize that application security is more critical than ever for the education market, and we're doing our part to remain a strong ally during these unprecedented times."
