    IT Security

    The OKCPS IT Services Security team maintains the processes and systems designed to protect district, student, and employee information that is digitally collected and stored.  As OKCPS becomes more reliant on technology and the computing environment for instruction, student assessment testing, educational record keeping, and data access, the work of IT Security becomes more critical.



    The group actively works to:

    • Provide clear security regulations, standards, and guidelines using the CoSN K-12 Security Framework.
    • Inform and educate OKCPS staff about cybersecurity.
    • Monitor and manage access to district systems.
    • Proactively manage information and network security risks.
    • Quickly respond to, contain, and manage security incidents.
    • Ensure operational continuity and rapid recovery during emergencies.
