Platform capabilities

Everything you need to stay secure and compliant

From continuous monitoring to automated reports — ShieldEd replaces manual assessments with a single, continuously updated platform.

Continuous Security Monitoring

Real-time visibility across Entra ID, MFA, Conditional Access, Exchange, Teams, SharePoint, Intune, Defender, and Purview.

RAG-Rated Compliance Reports

Red, Amber, Green ratings for DfE and Cyber Essentials compliance — with specific remediation steps engineers can act on immediately.

Live Compliance Dashboard

See exactly what you have, what is missing, and what must be fixed before audit — updated continuously, not reviewed quarterly.

Student Safety Controls

MAT-wide isolation policies, separate GALs per school, student-safe SharePoint settings, and primary school lockdown modes.

AI Governance Module

Acceptable-use policies, staff and student guidance, risk assessment templates, an approved tools register, and data protection checklists.

Automation Library

Production-ready PowerShell scripts, Graph API routines, Power Automate flows, Intune policies, and Conditional Access templates.

Compliance automation

DfE and Cyber Essentials compliance, automated

Manual compliance audits are time-consuming, error-prone, and obsolete the moment they are completed. ShieldEd continuously monitors your Microsoft 365 environment and alerts you to configuration drift before it becomes an audit finding.

Cyber Essentials certification evidence collection
RAG-rated findings with step-by-step remediation

Student safety

Protect students across your entire MAT

Beyond security compliance — ShieldEd enforces student safety controls that generic security tools cannot provide.

MAT-Wide Isolation Policies

Prevent inter-school communication in Teams and email across your entire MAT. Students can only communicate within their own school — protecting looked-after children and vulnerable students from cross-MAT contact.

Separate GALs Per School

Each school in your MAT has its own Global Address List. Students cannot inadvertently message staff or pupils outside their school, and staff lists remain appropriately scoped.

Student-Safe SharePoint

Granular SharePoint policies that prevent students from sharing files outside their school, block external sharing, and apply content classification labels automatically.

Primary School Lockdown Mode

One-click lockdown for primary schools: disables external email, restricts Teams to internal only, and suspends all file sharing. Activated by IT lead or headteacher in seconds.

Simple pricing

From £500 per month per school

No per-user fees, no hidden costs. One subscription covers continuous monitoring, compliance reports, student safety controls, and the automation library — scaled across your entire MAT.
