Schools and the Internet are becoming increasingly intertwined. The Internet has opened our children to opportunities and risks. Teaching Internet Safety and Cyber Security has a place in the classroom in the same way schools teach other life safety skills. Teaching our children to safely use computers helps protect them from cyber crime and our nation’s Internet infrastructure from cyber criminals. Making school networks safe and secure protects your school, faculty and staff as well.
