IllustrativeA representative example of how CyberByte Security works and the outcomes we target — not an actual client result. Figures are indicative.
The challenge
Staff and senior students might start using Copilot and public AI tools widely, with no policy and no view of what data is flowing where. The board could be concerned about children's data and privacy obligations but not want to ban tools that genuinely help teaching and learning.
The board could ask for assurance on AI use after staff adopt Copilot and public chatbots.
How CyberByte Security could approach it
A scoped, deliberate path to the outcome
Each step would be prioritised, evidenced and written to be acted on.
Discover approved and unapproved AI use across staff and students
Review what data is flowing into AI tools and who can access outputs
Review AI governance against ISO/IEC 42001 principles
Draft an acceptable-use policy designed to be easy for staff and students to follow
Set a monitoring and review cadence to keep governance live
What a successful outcome could look like.
AI use mapped
Target outcome: map approved and unapproved AI use
Policy ready
Target outcome: an acceptable-use policy ready for board approval
Risk reduction
Target outcome: close data-exposure paths without banning tools
What success could look like
In a scenario like this, a school could adopt AI safely instead of banning it — with governance designed to be practical for teachers and assurance for the board.
