Cybersecurity for Higher Ed Fact Sheet from the REMS TA Center

[Valerie Vogel <vvogel () EDUCAUSE EDU>]

Greetings,

We recently participated in a #CyberAwareCampus Twitter chat and wanted to share this new resource that was announced 
for our community – a fact sheet describing Cybersecurity Considerations for Institutions of Higher Education. 
https://t.co/AIztY4Z1yw (Note: This link will immediately download a PDF version of the fact sheet.)

Background: Under the administration of the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Safe and Healthy 
Students<https://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/oese/oshs/index.html>, the Readiness and Emergency Management for 
Schools (REMS) Technical Assistance (TA) Center provides free technical assistance and training services to the K-12 
and higher ed populations, along with their community partners, on a variety of safety, security, and emergency 
management topics. Cyber threats are just one of many emergency threats and hazards that they address through resource 
development, virtual trainings (webinars <http://www.rems.ed.gov/IntegratingCybersecurityForIHEs.aspx> and online 
courses), live trainings by request, a Community of Practice, and their comprehensive website 
(https://rems.ed.gov<https://rems.ed.gov/>.) Do you have questions specific to higher ed safety, security, or emergency 
management? Contact the REMS TA Center Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM ET at info () remstacenter 
org<mailto:info () remstacenter org> or 1-855-781-REMS [7367].


Thank you,
Valerie
