Secure Your School’s Future:
Google's push for HTTPS across the web has transformed the online landscape, especially for schools. With Chromium browsers now enforcing HTTPS, the conversation around TLS/SSL is more crucial than ever. At Lightspeed Systems, we are dedicated to helping you navigate these important changes.
What is TLS/SSL?
TLS (Transport Layer Security) and SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) are cryptographic protocols that ensure secure communication over a computer network. They encrypt the data transmitted between clients and servers, protecting sensitive information from cyber threats. By implementing TLS/SSL, schools can help safeguard the privacy and integrity of student and staff data.
Why is this important?
Schools are prime targets for cybercriminals. They house vast amounts of sensitive student data, and unfortunately, students and staff often lack awareness about online security.
- Did you know? The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) reports that K-12 schools average more than one cyber incident every school day.
- In just the past year, over 58 districts and 1,681 schools across the U.S. have reported cyberattacks.
With the significant web activity happening daily—students and staff accessing personal accounts and transmitting critical information—it's essential to prioritize web security. Implementing TLS/SSL is key to protecting these data transmissions.
