JumpCloud for Education – Replace Active Directory (AD) with a Modern Cloud Directory
As educational institutions embrace digital transformation, managing users, devices, and security across a diverse environment becomes increasingly complex. JumpCloud offers K-12 schools a cloud-based alternative to Active Directory, providing centralized identity and access management without the need for costly, on-prem infrastructure.
JumpCloud empowers IT teams in education to streamline user management, secure devices, and enhance student and staff experiences, all from a single platform.
Reduce Infrastructure Complexity – Traditional on-prem Active Directory systems are resource-intensive and complex to maintain, especially for school districts with limited IT budgets. JumpCloud’s cloud-based directory eliminates the need for physical servers, reducing overhead costs while simplifying management.
Enable Secure Remote Learning – As remote and hybrid learning become the norm, JumpCloud enables secure, seamless access to digital tools and applications for students and staff from anywhere. Ensure that devices meet security standards and allow only authorized users to access school resources—whether they’re at home or in the classroom.
Single Sign-On (SSO) for All Apps – Students, teachers, and administrators can easily access all their educational applications with a single set of credentials. JumpCloud integrates with Google Workspace for Education, Microsoft 365, and countless other cloud apps, reducing password fatigue and enhancing user experience.
Cross-Platform Device Management – K-12 schools often have a mix of Windows, macOS, Linux, and Chromebooks across their network. JumpCloud provides unified management, allowing IT administrators to manage and secure all devices from a single console, no matter the platform.
Improve Security with Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) – Protect your school from unauthorized access by enforcing MFA for staff and students. JumpCloud’s MFA supports a variety of authentication methods, ensuring that only verified users can log in to systems and applications.
