Jess Mak, Senior Vice President of Enterprise Market at Hutchison Telecommunications Hong Kong, joined an AI in Education seminar hosted by the Association of I.T. Leaders in Education and the Hong Kong Internet Registration Corporation (HKIRC) to discuss the evolving cybersecurity challenges facing schools in the AI era.
Jess pointed out that As AI becomes more widely adopted across teaching, learning and school administration, it is creating new opportunities as well as new risks. Cybercriminals are increasingly using AI to create convincing deepfakes, highly targeted phishing emails and more sophisticated malware, making threats harder to detect and respond to.
To help schools strengthen their cyber resilience, we have launched 3Education Campus Cybersecurity 360, a fully managed service covering 6 key areas: assessment, training, prevention, detection, monitoring and incident response. Supported by the 3Education Empower team, the 24/7 service helps schools move from reactive defence to proactive protection while opimising the use of existing education funding provisions.
