Board approves renewal of state local cybersecurity grant; CrowdStrike included
Summary
The board approved a consent-item renewal of the State Local Cybersecurity Grant (federal FY2024 pass-through) to fund district cybersecurity training and software, including CrowdStrike, and authorized staff to sign submission forms.
The Lake County Schools board approved a renewal of the State Local Cybersecurity Grant on the consent agenda May 11.
Staff described the FY2024 State Local Cybersecurity Grant as pass-through money intended to fund cybersecurity training and software for the district; CrowdStrike was named as an example of the endpoint protection software included in the package. The item was presented as a consent agreement and staff asked the board to sign the necessary paperwork so the district could accept the pass-through funds and avoid using local money where possible.
A motion to approve the grant renewal was made and seconded; the board approved the renewal by voice vote and staff were instructed to sign the required forms and submit the renewal.
