Student Information. Why you
need to worry about it.
Student Information systems contain
significant amounts of data that must be safeguarded
under FERPA (Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act)
and HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability
Act.) These laws require that school districts adopt
administrative and technical safeguards over electronic
data, including physical and intrusion securities.
Go.edu has partnered with Opsource,
the leading provider of web application delivery, to
provide one of the safest data environments in the industry.
How do
we know its safe? Opsources application
delivery solutions are audited in accordance with Statement
of Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70. This standard was
developed by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants (AICPA) and represents that a service organization
has been through an in-depth audit of their control
activities.
