“There are thousands of attacks on Alabama’s schools every day, but 99.9% of them are stopped,” Mackey toldMackey said the state saw the need to find help for school districts as COVID closed schools and teachers and students began accessing school networks at home. The ASA began offering services in summer of 2020, and 111 school districts initially signed on for help.
“We help with alerting as early as possible on malware and ransomware indicators of compromise for all of the schools who are accepting our services and participating with us,” Rodriguez said. One of the services ASA offers is threat assessment training where employees learn to recognize phishing attempts and can hopefully avoid clicking on malicious links. The training is voluntary, though, and there is no record of who has been trained and who hasn’t.
