Ark. Code Ann. § 6-11-128 requires the Arkansas Department of Education (ADE) to develop an Information Technology (IT) Security Policy. Pursuant to ADE Rules Governing the Processes to Ensure the Quality, Security, Validation and Timeliness of Public School Data in Arkansas Public School Computer Network (APSCN), the ADE in cooperation with Arkansas Department of Information Systems (DIS), Arkansas State Security Office, and Coalfire Systems, Inc. has developed an IT Security Policy for Arkansas Public Schools. The attached security policy supersedes the previously released security policy included in Commissioner’s Memo RT-09-008 and clarifies IT Security Policy Sections 1B2 (Data Sensitivity) and 2B2 (Computer Room Security).
