Watch as Ferrilli Associate Director Casey Malone shares tips and tricks for managing post-admit items in CRM Recruit.
In honor of Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2022, Ferrilli is looking to empower everyday individuals and academic institutions by making cybersecurity more accessible and top-of-mind.
In this current climate, there is a growing and wholly justifiable emphasis on improving cybersecurity in our daily lives. We are all responsible for ensuring that our computers, mobile devices, and the information in our possession is secure and protected from bad cyber actors.
To that end, we’ve compiled our list of 10 Cybersecurity Best Practices for Individuals:
We’re excited to announce that Ferrilli has been named to the Philadelphia100® list for the 5th time!
As a 5-time winner, Ferrilli earned a spot in the prestigious Philadelphia100® Hall of Fame; a distinction shared by just 28 other companies.
Ferrilli landed at No. 53 on this year’s list, which recognizes the fastest growing, privately-held companies in the region.
Growth translates into more opportunities for the company and greater client value creation. We’re excited share this honor with the entire Ferrilli team and our higher education community.
We’re alerting our higher education technology community that support for Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2, including security updates, are coming to an end in one year.
Extended Support for these operating systems will end on October 10, 2023.
If you haven’t thought about migrating your servers to newer versions, now is a good time to start!
Considering that these projects can take significant time to schedule and execute, the earlier you start the better off you will be. Many organizations faced challenges when Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2 were end-of-life. It is important not to be caught in a similar position this time around.
We have also been noticing that IT security initiatives are on the rise and having out-of-service OSes is often a top item to resolve. Security auditors will mark these servers as a risk to be remediated and mitigations are often costly and service impacting. Our team recommends avoiding the hassle and starting your upgrade project now.
As always, if you have any questions or support needs around this project, Ferrilli is here to help. We have the expertise and working knowledge to help you upgrade or migrate your servers with minimal impact to end-users.
Beginning in the 2024-25 Award Year, Federal Student Aid will be making significant changes to the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as well as the methodology used to determine student eligibility for financial assistance. These changes are anticipated to benefit students and their families, not only by simplifying the FAFSA application itself, but also by reducing barriers to accessing federal funds for education. These positive changes for financial aid applicants will have monumental impacts for higher education institutions that must start being considered now to adequately prepare for what is to come.
We’re proud to be a Gold Sponsor at the CCBO Annual Conference, October 3-5!
Ferrilli’s Robert Ferrilli, Kelly Sinacola, and Marcia A. Daniel will all be on-site in Orlando.
Stop by Booth 5 to connect with us and learn more about the Ferrilli difference.
