Protecting Students in the Public School Environment
- Abstract
- Today's network security issues not only involve the protection of the vital data of commerce, but also, whether by law, policy or common sense, the people and the parts of their lives that may be included in that data. It does not matter if your organization is a major corporation, a small business or a home user, parts of a user's life such as Social Security numbers, personal phone numbers, tax/income information, health information, etc, are all possibly available on a network if not properly protected. This paper will consider the environment and some processes designed to protect our most precious users -our children - when out of our homes and inside the educational environment.
