Cybersecurity

The Elmwood Park Public Schools takes great pride in protecting and maintaining the digital information stored in our system.  Schools often hold sensitive information about their students and staff, such as personal data and academic records. This information is attractive to cybercriminals, who may attempt to steal it for financial gain or to cause harm to the individuals involved. 

Students and teachers use computers, tablets, and other devices for everything from taking notes and submitting assignments to collaborating on group projects and accessing online resources. This increased reliance on technology makes schools vulnerable to cyber attacks, which could disrupt the learning process. By implementing robust cybersecurity measures, we can protect our networks and devices from these attacks and ensure that students and teachers can use technology safely and effectively.

Implementing strong cybersecurity measures is crucial for ensuring the safety and security of students, teachers, and staff, as well as enabling the effective use of technology in the classroom.
