Virtru a Perfect Fit for K-12 Education Cyber Security Requirements **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Troy L. | Technology Director | Data Privacy Manager, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 06, 2024 **What do you like best about Virtru Secure Share?** Advanced solution that provides the best in email and file encryption while making it simple for even the most novice of technical users to use and comply. User adoption does not require a lot of work when they quickly recognize their concerns about working-with, sharing, and transmitting student personally identifiable information (PII) is no longer a concern of theirs. Deployment from beginning to end is a less than a minute (can be automatic if the extension is automatically pushed out to the user). Initial user training is also less than a minute.

This would potentially involve school teachers, administrators, nurses, specialists, and other student program supporters. These critical situations must be simple for these users to activate encryption compliance (which is enabled with the simple "click" on a button). ### 7.
