Many schools have expanded their reliance on remote online learning. This presents greater risks for cybersecurity threats. Schools can learn more about cybersecurity best practices and resources by contacting their county emergency management agency, or by visiting the Indiana Cybersecurity Hub.

The Indiana Executive Council on Cybersecurity (IECC), along with the Indiana Department of Education and federal partners, developed an updated toolkit designed for superintendents, administrators, teachers, staff members, school board members, parents and concerned citizens. The toolkit provides ways to protect schools, teachers, families, students and more.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) works with governments, law enforcement agencies and others nationwide to continue enhancing school safety and security. Visit its School Safety and Security page for documents, resources and tools.

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released a report in January 2023 with a supporting toolkit. The report provides recommendations and resources to help K-12 schools and school districts reduce their risk to cybersecurity threats. CISA provides three recommendations to help K-12 leaders build, operate and maintain resilient cybersecurity programs. Along with the report is an online toolkit that aligns with the recommendations and includes guidance on how schools can implement changes.
