As schools across the United States continue to grapple with the growing threat of cyberattacks, the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) has issued long-awaited guidance to help K-12 institutions bolster their defenses. The new recommendations aim to address the persistent risks faced by schools, which have become increasingly vulnerable to data breaches and other cyber threats. With the increasing reliance on technology in education, the risk of cyberattacks has only intensified, putting sensitive student and staff data at risk. The CISA guidance is expected to provide schools with actionable steps to enhance their cybersecurity posture and protect against the evolving threats.
