Cyber security is infiltrating education, whether by necessity in cases of data breaches or by practice in teaching kids how to be upstanding digital citizens. Fed Scoop recently interviewed about a dozen experts, professors, school administrators and federal officials for a series on why digital safety is becoming increasingly important in K-12 schools.To help administrators and IT directors better understand how to establish best cyber security practices in their own schools, we have compiled tips and takeaways that came out of our reporting:

• Invest in a robust firewall
• .Have students and teachers create complex, long passwords.

The outcome of these prospects can make an improvement in today's world by allowing student to learn about cyber security while in middle or high school.
