Birmingham, Ala., June 6, 2022 –ThreatAdvice, a company focused on cybersecurity and cyber education solutions, announced today that it has been selected by the newly formed Orange Beach City Schools as the cybersecurity provider for the school system. ThreatAdvice will serve as an extension of the school system’s information technology team, providing continuous vulnerability scanning, proprietary security management dashboards, customizable security policies, detailed reporting, remediation guidance, cyber education and more.
Orange Beach City Schools recently separated from Baldwin County Schools and will begin welcoming students in August of 2022.

“This is an exciting time for Orange Beach as we are working to design a top-notch school system and an integral part of that is ensuring that our systems and the data of our students, administration and community are protected,” said Robbie Smith, EdD, interim superintendent of Orange Beach City Schools. “We are excited to partner with Alabama-based ThreatAdvice to ensure we have comprehensive measures in place to protect our schools. We want to do everything that we can to keep our students safe, whether it is on campus or on the internet,” she said.
“ThreatAdvice is proud to have been selected as the cybersecurity provider for Orange Beach City Schools during the formation of the new school system,” said Starr Largin, director of vCISO for ThreatAdvice. “Superintendent Smith and I have discussed numerous cyber options regarding the school’s technology and the students. As part of our partnership, ThreatAdvice is dedicated to educating Orange Beach students on how to safely navigate the internet in today’s world,” she said.
