Plain-English Summary

The federal government would create a new program to help K-12 schools improve their cybersecurity defenses and technology systems, protecting student data and school networks from hackers and cyber attacks. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency would run this program, likely providing schools with resources, training, or funding to upgrade their security measures. This would affect school districts, students, and families by helping ensure that sensitive educational records and school systems are better protected from cyber threats.
