FERPA-Compliant Secure Cobrowsing Solution

Education demands the highest level of student data protection, and our cobrowsing solution meets those requirements with end-to-end encryption, strict access controls, and automated PII masking. Every session is consent-driven and fully compliant with FERPA, COPPA, and education security frameworks, ensuring sensitive student information stays protected at all times. Unlike traditional screen sharing, our platform prevents exposure of academic records, personal identifiers, or financial data, making it the safest and most compliant way to support students and parents online.

App-Free, One-Click Access

Students and parents often struggle with downloads, plugins, and technical steps, but with our app-free cobrowsing, support becomes effortless. A single secure link allows users to share their screen instantly from any device or browser. No installations. No configuration. Just seamless, instant connectivity. This reduces drop-off rates, accelerates onboarding, and ensures even non-technical parents can receive real-time assistance with portals, enrollment forms, LMS navigation, or financial aid applications.

Hide Sensitive Student Information Automatically

Blitzz cobrowse automatically detects and masks sensitive student information such as grades, Social Security numbers, financial aid details, or personal identifiers before the support agent can see it. This ensures complete protection of student PII while still allowing staff to guide users through their digital journey. By combining secure masking with controlled screen access, educational institutions can assist students and parents confidently while maintaining strict compliance and eliminating unnecessary exposure risks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have Question? We are here to help

What is cobrowsing in education?

Cobrowsing in education is a secure, real-time visual support technology that allows support staff to see exactly what a student or parent sees inside student portals, LMS platforms, enrollment pages, or online forms. Unlike screen sharing, cobrowsing is FERPA-ready, consent-driven, and automatically masks student PII—making it safe for K-12 schools, universities, and EdTech providers to guide users through their digital journey.

How is cobrowsing different from screen sharing?

Traditional screensharing exposes a user's full desktop, creating FERPA and student PII risks. Cobrowsing, on the other hand, only shares the active browser window, hides sensitive student information, and gives the user full control over what's visible. This makes cobrowsing the preferred, compliant alternative to screensharing for educational institutions.

Is Blitzz Cobrowse FERPA compliant?

Yes. Blitzz Cobrowse is built with FERPA-ready security, encrypted connections, consent workflows, PII masking, and strict access controls. Support staff never see grades, student IDs, Social Security numbers, financial aid details, or other sensitive data—ensuring safe and compliant digital support for student portals and LMS platforms.

How does app-free cobrowsing work for students and parents?

Blitzz Cobrowse uses app-free, one-click access, so students and parents don't need to download any software or install plugins. They simply click a secure link and can join instantly from any device, anywhere—mobile, tablet, desktop, or browser. This reduces onboarding friction and supports users who may not be technically comfortable.

What types of issues can education teams solve with cobrowsing?

Education teams can use cobrowsing to troubleshoot and support:

  • Student portal login and onboarding
  • Parent portal navigation issues
  • LMS platform navigation (Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle)
  • Online course registration and enrollment
  • Grade and attendance record access
  • Financial aid and tuition payment forms
  • Virtual classroom setup and troubleshooting
  • Assignment submission and testing platforms

It provides a visual, guided experience that helps resolve issues up to 42% faster.
