NEW HAVEN, CT — The week of November 17-21 is International Education Week. To commemorate this celebration of global education, SafeAbroad, a leading provider of safety and risk assessment solutions in international education, will lead a webinar on “Digital Identity and Border Security” on November 21, 2025. The presentation will address growing challenges students and institutions face with electronic device inspections, app data, and social media activity at international checkpoints.
As international travel evolves in response to global events, crossing borders today involves more than just passports and visas—digital footprints are now under scrutiny as well. Attendees will explore strategies to help travelers protect their digital privacy and stay informed in an evolving global security landscape.
“With the rise of social media and other technology, the real world and the digital world are often intertwined for students today. We want to give them the tools and knowledge to navigate both safely,” said Zac Einerson, Client Engagement Lead at SafeAbroad.
