How to use Securly

Implementing Securly is a collaborative process designed for educational institutions:

1. Request a Demo: School administrators start by requesting a personalized demo through the Securly website. This consultation helps identify the specific needs of the school or district.
2. Customized Implementation: Securly's world-class support team assists with a tailored onboarding and implementation plan, deploying the cloud-based solutions across the district's network and devices (including Chromebooks, iPads, and Windows) with minimal disruption.
3. Policy Configuration: IT administrators configure web filtering policies to meet CIPA compliance, set up custom alert criteria for wellness monitoring, and establish rules for classroom management and digital hall passes.
4. Monitor, Alert, and Intervene: Once active, the AI engine begins analyzing student activity. Teachers use Securly Classroom to manage their digital classrooms. Designated staff receive real-time alerts for potential risks like self-harm, bullying, or violence. The Securly On-Call team of trained analysts can provide 24/7 monitoring to verify threats and ensure timely intervention.
5. Engage with Parents: Schools can empower parents with the SecurlyHome app, providing them with insights into their child's online activity on school-issued devices and allowing them to set at-home filtering rules.

Core Features of Securly

• Student Safety (Web Filtering): A cloud-based web filter that uses AI to categorize new sites and detect proxies in real-time. It offers selective SSL decryption to ensure a safe browsing experience without compromising privacy, fully compliant with CIPA.
• Student Wellness (AI Monitoring): Securly Aware uses sophisticated AI to scan Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and social media for signs of suicide, self-harm, bullying, and violence. Alerts are flagged for review by school officials or Securly's 24/7 human analyst team.
• Social-Emotional Learning (Rhithm): An integrated tool that allows students to perform emotional check-ins, providing educators with valuable wellness data and offering students evidence-based activities to help regulate their emotions and build resilience.
• Classroom Management: Securly Classroom gives teachers real-time visibility into student screens, enabling them to guide online activity, push URLs, lock screens to get attention, and ensure students remain focused and on-task.
• Campus Safety (Digital Hall Pass): Securly Pass modernizes the traditional hall pass system. It allows schools to manage student movement, reduce disruptions, limit time out of class, and enhance campus security.
• Parent Engagement: The SecurlyHome portal and mobile app foster a strong school-home partnership by giving parents visibility and control over their children's online activities on school devices when they are at home.

Use Cases for Securly

Crisis Intervention: A school district receives an alert from Securly about a student's concerning search history related to self-harm. The school's counseling team is immediately notified, allowing them to intervene and provide the student with critical mental health support, potentially saving a life.

Cyberbullying Prevention: The system flags aggressive language in a student's email. Administrators can then mediate the situation between the students involved, addressing the cyberbullying incident proactively before it escalates.

Improving Classroom Focus: During a digital lesson, a teacher uses Securly Classroom to see that several students are on gaming websites. The teacher can instantly block those sites for the class period and redirect the students back to the assignment.

Streamlining Campus Operations: A high school uses Securly Pass to manage restroom breaks. The system prevents too many students from being in the hallways at once and flags students who are frequently leaving class, providing data for administrative follow-up.
