EdTech Breakthrough, a leading market intelligence organization that recognizes the top companies and solutions in the global educational technology market, today announced that Securly, the market leader in end-to-end comprehensive student safety & device management, has been selected as the winner of its "Best Use of Artificial Intelligence in Education" award in the second annual EdTech Breakthrough Awards program. Securly 360 Cloud platform is a complete end-to-end student safety and device management solution that helps students stay safe online and focused on learning. Securly's advanced AI-based filtering technology significantly decreases the likelihood of students viewing inappropriate content while also increasing the awareness schools have into active and potential incidents of cyberbullying, self-harm or violence. While the majority of the educational technology industry approaches student safety by relying on catalogs of keyword searches to alert schools to signs of troubling behavior. This approach results in districts being inundated with false positives, all of which needed to be followed up on to ensure the safety of the students involved.
