About us

Synaptic Cybersecurity Alliance, Inc., a Public Benefit Corporation, is dedicated to safeguarding the technological foundations of the higher-education sector and their critical supporting entities, such as medical practices, research labs, and community outreach programs. Recognizing these institutions and their extensions as vital pillars of society, we strive to enhance their cybersecurity and IT infrastructure to ensure they remain resilient, innovative, and capable of shaping the future. Protecting the integrity of education and its associated components is essential for a thriving, informed society, and we are committed to empowering these institutions to continue driving progress, advancing knowledge, and fostering opportunity for all.

Empowering Higher Education Through Secure, Reliable, and Resilient IT Services.

Higher education runs on trust - in the systems that support teaching, learning, research, and connection. At Synaptic Cybersecurity Alliance, we partner with colleges and universities to build IT environments that are secure by design, reliable in practice, and resilient when it matters most.

With decades of higher-ed experience, we understand that great technology doesn’t just support education - it elevates it. That’s why we work with institutions to design practical, user-centered solutions that reduce risk, streamline operations, and free up time for mission-focused work.

We center our work around the people who rely on IT every day - students, faculty, and staff. Whether it's simplifying login experiences, modernizing infrastructure, or improving incident response, we create systems that feel as intuitive as they are effective.

Security is woven into every layer of our approach, using proven frameworks to ensure data is protected and services are resilient against disruption - from phishing campaigns to natural disasters.

And we don’t start from scratch. We build on what you already have - extending existing investments, integrating with your teams, and helping you move from reactive fixes to proactive strategy.

Together, we help higher-ed lead by example: with thoughtful technology, strong foundations, and a shared commitment to building a smarter, safer, and more inclusive future.
