A new privacy technology called Encrypted Client Hello (ECH) is on the horizon, and while it enhances online privacy for users, it could present challenges for schools when it comes to web filtering and safeguarding.
We’ve created a comprehensive guide to help you understand what ECH is, how it works, and most importantly, how it might impact your school’s ability to monitor and block inappropriate content in line with KCSiE and DfE requirements.
We explain how Schools Broadband continues to protect schools and outline simple steps you can take to prepare your systems to minimise any risks posed by ECH.
If you’re unsure whether your systems are ready or need guidance, our team is here to help.
For any questions or concerns regarding ECH and safeguarding, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. We’re here to ensure your school remains protected and compliant as this technology develops.
