When the network goes down, your school doesn't.
teamSOS runs independently of your school's network and Wi-Fi, over mobile data if it has to. If a cyber attack takes your systems offline, staff can still call for help, follow your plan and stay in touch.

Part of a layered response to cyber threats.
No single tool stops every attack. teamSOS makes sure that when one gets through, your people can still act together while systems are restored.
Plan
Your cyber incident plan, procedures and key contacts on every member of staff's device, with training tracked so you know who's ready.
Respond
Raise the incident, alert your response team and send instructions to all staff, then see who has confirmed they've received them.
Keep running
Everyday incidents and safeguarding concerns still reach the right people while your core systems are down.
Your cyber plan, step by step, in every pocket.
When systems fail, no one should be hunting for a printed plan. teamSOS turns your procedures into task lists staff can follow on their phones, with progress visible to leaders.
- Task lists built from your own cyber and critical incident plans
- Closed-response announcements to keep every member of staff updated
- Secure messaging that works on personal devices when school equipment is unavailable
- A time-stamped log of every decision, ready for your review
- ✓Disconnect affected devices from the network
- ✓Contact your IT provider and data protection officer
- ✓Tell staff not to log in to school devices
- Switch registers and safeguarding to your offline process
- Update parents through your agreed channel
- Record actions for the post-incident review
Reliable when everything else isn't.
An added benefit of teamSOS has been its business continuity role, enabling the College Group to communicate and access critical documents even if all other business-critical systems are down.
We really like the reliability of teamSOS… Our biggest challenge was how to provide all staff with a way to report incidents, ensure the right response teams were alerted and have a history of what happened during the incident without spending a fortune!
Not a school? teamSOS keeps organisations of every kind running through outages and cyber incidents.
