What schools need on endpoints

Student privacy: Restrict data sharing from student apps and limit local storage.

Kiosk modes: Single app and multi app kiosk for assessments and classroom tools.

App governance: Allow lists for approved curriculum software and block distractions.

Web filtering: Configure web content filters and global proxy where required.

Lifecycle: Wipe or reassign devices between classes and terms with minimal effort.

How Codeproof helps

  • Kiosk and testing: Lock devices to approved apps and block system UI where supported.
  • App catalogs by grade: Create app sets by class, group, or grade level and deploy automatically.
  • Web controls: Use content filtering and proxy configurations consistent with policy.
  • Managed identities: Support Managed Apple IDs and school accounts during enrollment.
  • Fast re-provisioning: Selective wipe and zero-touch workflows to turn devices quickly.

Education (FERPA/COPPA) FAQs

What is FERPA?
FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act) is a U.S. law that protects the privacy of student education records. Schools must safeguard data such as grades, transcripts, and personal information.
What is COPPA?
COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) is a U.S. law that protects the personal information of children under 13 online. It requires parental consent before collecting, using, or sharing student data.
How does Codeproof help protect student data?
Apply device encryption and passcodes, restrict data sharing to approved apps, and use web filters and managed DNS profiles where supported.
Can we lock tablets for testing or classroom apps only?
Yes—use single-app or multi-app kiosk, block settings changes, and pre-load Wi-Fi/VPN/certificates for reliable access.
How do we manage lost devices assigned to students?
Enable location (where allowed), trigger Lost Mode/remote lock, and perform selective wipe. Use logs for helpdesk and administrative records.
How do we handle BYOD for staff?
Use work containers (Android) or User Enrollment (Apple) to separate school data from personal data and enable selective wipe on departure.
