Back to school: Ubuntu Desktop in Education

Sep 20, 2023

Schools and universities need affordable and secure learning tools to equip their students. IT managers at these institutions also want peace of mind: they need systems that are easy to manage and built with industry-leading security and privacy measures.

Ubuntu, a long-time favourite for education, is an intuitive and accessible Linux distribution - ideal for building up real-world tech skills in a secure digital environment. Ubuntu is also highly manageable, supported on a wide range of hardware and comes with security features like disc encryption, GPO support and up to ten years of regular security updates for every long-term supported release. So your school’s data remains in your control - where it should be.
