Traditionally, the Education Department has partnered with agencies like the FBI, the National Security Council and CISA to highlight cybersecurity best practices, coordinate risk mitigation strategies and increase visibility to free and low-cost cybersecurity resources.
The article from Politico's Weekly Cybersecurity newsletter discusses the increasing frequency and sophistication of cyberattacks targeting educational institutions. It highlights how schools, from K-12 to higher education, are becoming prime targets for cybercriminals due to their often outdated cybersecurity measures and the valuable data they hold, including personal information of students and staff. The piece mentions several recent incidents where schools were hit with ransomware, leading to significant disruptions in learning and administrative functions. It also covers the response strategies being adopted by educational bodies, such as increased cybersecurity training, investment in better security infrastructure, and collaboration with cybersecurity firms. Additionally, the newsletter touches on legislative efforts to bolster cybersecurity in schools, noting that while there is growing awareness, the pace of implementation lags behind the threats. The article concludes by emphasizing the need for a comprehensive approach to cybersecurity in education, integrating technology, policy, and education to safeguard against these evolving threats.
