Cybersecurity in the Classroom: Protecting K-12 Schools from Cybercrime
Discover how Lewisville ISD strengthens its cybersecurity posture amid rising AI-driven threats, limited resources, and escalating BEC attacks.

Every day, K–12 districts are hit with increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks—from business email compromise and payroll fraud to student “insider” activity that takes down networks before exams. With limited funding, lean teams, and massive amounts of student and staff data to protect, schools have become high-value, easy targets for threat actors.
At the same time, attackers are using AI to write more convincing phishing emails, customize ransomware, and bypass traditional controls while overworked IT teams struggle to keep up. Many incidents go undetected, manual triage drains precious hours, and gaps in training leave teachers and staff exposed.
