Compliance in higher ed is fragmented

Security teams, registrars, and accreditation liaisons work in isolation — duplicating effort and missing gaps until an audit exposes them.

Spreadsheets & silos

Compliance tracking scattered across departments, Excel files, and shared drives — no single source of truth.

Audit panic cycles

Scrambling to assemble evidence days before a GLBA audit or accreditation site visit, with gaps surfacing too late.

Vendor risk blind spots

No systematic way to map SOC 2 reports to your NIST control baseline or identify coverage gaps in third-party systems.

Manual, repetitive work

Hours spent cross-referencing requirements across frameworks, generating reports, and tracking remediation by hand.

Two modules, one platform

Built for how higher ed actually works

Security and academic compliance are managed by different teams — but they share the same data, systems, and audit evidence. AssuraEDU unifies them.

Security Compliance

NIST RMF · GLBA · FERPA · Vendor Mgmt · AI Governance

Operationalize the NIST Risk Management Framework across your institution's systems with FIPS 199 categorization, control selection, SSP authoring, and authorization tracking.

  • NIST SP 800-53 control baselines & tailoring
  • GLBA & FERPA requirement tracking
  • System authorizations (ATO) with re-auth triggers
  • Vendor SOC 2 → NIST crosswalk & gap analysis
  • AI system risk assessment (NIST AI RMF)
  • One-click audit packages & traceability matrices

Academic Compliance

Accreditation · HEOA · Distance Ed · Program Review

Manage accreditation cycles, program reviews, and regulatory disclosures on the same shared data foundation as your security program.

  • Accreditation cycle tracking (SACSCOC, HLC, CCNE…)
  • Self-study progress & evidence management
  • Program review with outcomes assessment
  • HEOA consumer information disclosures
  • Distance education & professional licensure
  • Cross-framework audit traceability

Every framework your institution faces

Dual-framework tracking with NIST cross-mapping means you assess once and satisfy multiple regulators — with full audit traceability.

Customer Stories

Built with higher-ed compliance leaders

Security, registrars, and accreditation teams use AssuraEDU to turn compliance from a scramble into a system.

“AssuraEDU collapsed our GLBA and FERPA tracking into one register. We walked into our last audit with every control mapped and every artifact linked — no scramble.”

Dana Whitfield

CISO · Meridian University

“The vendor SOC 2 crosswalk alone justified the platform. We finally see where our third-party coverage gaps sit against our NIST baseline.”

Marcus Reyes

Information Security Officer · Lakeshore Community College

“Accreditation self-study used to live in a hundred spreadsheets. Now evidence, findings, and remediation are traceable from the standard down to the control.”

Dr. Priya Natarajan

Provost & Accreditation Liaison · Atlas State University

A distance-learning institution had to map NIST 800-171 CUI controls and vendor attestations for a federal research contract — evidence was scattered across drives.
