Avilés follows up on security protocol update timeline
Avilés asks when updated security protocols will be released. Doyle says data privacy and security policy updates will come in coming months, and notes DOE updated Chancellor's Regulation A20 on student privacy for the first time since 2009, incorporating feedback from parents, advocates, and school leaders.
So just to circle back, I mean, your updates on security protocols are going to be coming out in a few months.
Is that what you're suggesting?
On our data privacy and security policies, yes.
That's one of the requirements under New York State Education Law 2D is that we have that posted on the DOE website.
It is publicly posted there right now.
We want to improve that.
We want to improve it to make it clearer, more accessible, so everyone has a better understanding of what our data privacy and compliance policies are.
And I also just want to add, too, along these same lines, we've also, in the last year or just over a year ago, updated our chancellor's regulation, which is Chancellor's Regulation A20 on student privacy.
That regulation had not been updated since 2009.
So we worked very hard on that to try and bring our own DOE regulation up.
to speed with the current landscape of privacy law.
We worked with a lot of parents, community leaders, advocates, school leaders, incorporated their feedback,
and we feel came up with a regulation that actually strengthens our data privacy practices, but obviously this is a continuous process and we're going to be doing more.
Thank you.
Thank you, Councilmember Aviles.
