Cybersecurity Awareness Month and Digital Citizenship Guidelines

Cybersecurity Awareness Month and Digital Citizenship Guidelines

October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month. With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), cyber attacks have become more common and advanced. We are raising awareness, and helping students learn ways they can protect their data online—and in doing so, help keep the entire school community cybersecure.  

To create a healthy and safe digital environment, the DOE provides comprehensive guidelines on digital citizenship, based on age group. Please review the guidelines to promote good digital citizenship and the guidelines on online safety basics, identify theft, and social media best practices.
