Developing a Cybersecurity Plan
School districts routinely collect, store, and access hundreds of pieces of protected personally identifiable information and educational records for students and staff. The responsibility to secure information and the systems storing that data, ensure resources are available when needed, and protect the privacy of data resides with each individual school district.
These resources will show you what safety, privacy, legal, and regulatory compliance needs you must have to establish a successful cybersecurity program.
