Fall into cybersecurity
As the school year progresses, it’s a good idea to be mindful of prioritizing cybersecurity. The district’s Educational Technology Department has some important tips to help you protect your data, devices, and district resources.
- Refrain from using the same password for personal and work accounts. Ensure that your work and personal accounts have different, strong passwords to safeguard your information.
- Don’t leave devices unattended. Lock your device before walking away from it
- Avoid public Wi-Fi to access district resources. Public Wi-Fi networks, like those at coffee shops, are convenient but not secure. Connect to Dallas ISD VPN for a secure connection.
- Back up your teaching curriculum. Routinely transfer your teaching materials to cloud services such as OneDrive or Google Drive.
- Reach out for help. Contact the Dallas ISD IT Department or Help Desk if you need any technical assistance such as passwords.
