The Cybersecurity Challenge Schools are Facing

When it comes to the day-to-day operations that schools experience, the biggest anomaly is the rate of turnover.
Every year, semester, month, and/or week, schools deal with turnover. Teaching turnover, staff turnover, administrative turnover; but most notably, student turnover.This creates a problem for schools because they still have some duty to protect the data of graduated students. Schools also have to absorb the new expense of the incoming class.
