FERPA
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law enacted in 1974 that protects the privacy of student education records.
| Control | Description |
|---|---|
| Record Keeping | Maintain a record of each request for access and disclosure of PII from parties. |
| Encrypt Files and Emails | Encryption tools help keep data secure on a physical level. If a computer is stolen, its files are hacked digitally or the computer is left unattended, encrypted files cannot be accessed without the decryption key. |
| Routine Vulnerability Scans | Routine vulnerability scans can make sure schools that keep their education records in the cloud are safe from vulnerabilities and risks. If any are found, the IT team can correct the issue before the data gets leaked or breached. |
| Implement Compliant Policies & Procedures | Well-developed policies and procedures can help mitigate the amount of damage caused by a data breach or unauthorized disclosure. |
