Where do I begin?
Begin by:
- Surveying your current environment,
- Identifying industry best practices and standards, and
- Evaluating gaps between your environment and these standards.
Two notable organizations have developed packages and toolkits to help in this effort; the Critical Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), and the K-12 Security Information eXchange (K12 SIX).
CISA
- Protecting Our Future: Cybersecurity for K-12
- Educational Institutions
- Toolkit: Partnering to Safeguard K-12 Organizations from Cybersecurity Threats
