Technology Should Enable Learning,
Not Interrupt It.

Schools and educational organizations face unique IT challenges, student data regulations, device management, and the constant demand for reliable connectivity. Streamline helps Pittsburgh educational institutions build technology environments where learning comes first.

The Challenges Schools Face

Education IT Requires Expertise That Most Generalist IT Firms Don't Have

FERPA compliance, device management at scale, classroom connectivity, and the security of student data, the IT demands of educational institutions are complex and consequential.

Student Data Is Protected by Federal Law

FERPA requires strict controls over student educational records. Violations can result in the loss of federal funding, and most schools don't have all the required technical controls in place.

Ransomware Attacks on Schools Are Surging

K-12 schools and higher education institutions are increasingly targeted by ransomware. Many attacks result in weeks of disruption and millions in recovery costs.

Device Management at Scale Is a Full-Time Job

Managing hundreds or thousands of Chromebooks, laptops, and tablets, with constant enrollment and departure of students, requires systems and processes most schools don't have.

Unreliable Connectivity Disrupts Learning

Whether it's a classroom WiFi dead zone or an internet outage during testing, connectivity failures have a direct impact on instruction time and student outcomes.

Compliance & Requirements

FERPA Compliance Requires More Than a Policy

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act requires educational institutions to protect the privacy of student education records. But FERPA compliance isn't just a policy, it requires specific technical controls that many schools haven't fully implemented.

We help Pittsburgh educational institutions implement the technical safeguards FERPA requires, document their compliance posture, and train staff on proper data handling.

  • FERPA-compliant access controls for student educational records
  • Audit trails for access to sensitive student data
  • Staff training on FERPA requirements and data handling
  • Data breach notification procedures as required by FERPA

When Schools Are Hit by Ransomware, Everyone Loses

The average ransomware attack on a school district costs $3.5 million and causes 3 weeks of disruption. Students miss instruction. Staff work blind. Parents lose trust. We help Pittsburgh educational institutions build the defenses that prevent this outcome.
