Role of students management system

In this generation of online learning, students may be required to share their personal information with many online services. This data sometimes gets misused if not handled securely. The data students provide to such third-party websites and software can be misused for various purposes. The student data can be delicate, imagine the student marks and other information becoming modified. What if the bank details of parents get used by a hacker by gaining access to administrative controls!That might lead to some big repercussions. So it is very important to handle student data securely thus data security is important.

Data security is the means of ensuring that data is kept safe from corruption and that access to it is suitably controlled. Thus data security helps to ensure privacy. It also helps in protecting personal data. That means protection of data from unauthorized (that may be accidental or intentional) access, modification, and destruction. Some of the technologies available for computer security are cryptography, biometric systems, anti-virus solutions, firewalls, etc.


Educational technologies bring great value to the education process,but they can considerably mix up the goal of protecting the privacy of student data.The best step any educational organization can take is to know exactly what data they store and how sensitive it is,so that they can protect sensitive and regulated data by using security tools.
