Beware Computer Threats
Recently the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, a division of the Department of Homeland Security, and the FBI issued an alert (https://us-cert.cisa.gov/ncas/alerts/aa20-345a) warning of increased ransomware threats against K-12 schools and districts.
Please take time to review the alert, increase your school’s cybersecurity posture, and share with stakeholders within your school. The FBI recommends that you DO NOT pay ransoms.
In the event of a cyber/ransomware incident, please contact Wisconsin’s Cyber Response Team at 1-800-943-0003.
WCRIS recommends that you also contact your local law enforcement agency and your school’s insurance provider.
