West Aurora Public School District 129 (District 129) is a unit school district in southeastern Kane County, Illinois serving Aurora, North Aurora, Montgomery, Sugar Grove and Batavia. The district spans 12,500 students and 1,500 staff and thus holds an abundance of pristine student data on its servers. Because students often do not have credit records, student identity data is particularly valuable and attractive to hackers and cyberthieves. Being a sought-after target and to ensure adherence to The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, it was critical that District 129 put an emphasis on protecting its student data as well as all proprietary and staff data.

At this point, the board plans to create an in house cyber security team that should be able to protect the organization from both insider and outsider attack and clearly segregate its responsibility from IT Service department. The security should consider the nature of the business, its diverse and vast presence worldwide and security of sensitive data.
