 In order to protect against moving risks, enable fast reaction, and
maintain a solid security position in the context of constantly
increasing digital problems, it is critical to remain vigilant and
knowledgeable about emerging cyber threats.

We urge people to actively put the advised cybersecurity precautions

into practice and build a cybersecurity-conscious culture within the
school. By working together to apply the latest technologies, we can
safeguard digital files and sensitive data while also fostering a more
secure and safe workplace for students, staff, and faculty as a whole.
We can strengthen our security measures against cyberattacks and
develop an adaptive and watchful cybersecurity culture in our school
by making this common commitment.
