CoSN, currently celebrating its 25th anniversary, found that
it longer needs to ask survey respondents if they are “familiar with CoSN.”
However, according to the report, not all changes are positive, and solving one
problem can create another. As districts have transitioned to digital
environments, concerns have increased regarding data privacy and data security.
A low ranking priority in the early survey results, Cyber Security is now one
of the top concerns for IT Leaders. IT Leaders also contend with persistent
issues that are unrelated to their digital ecosystem. Five years of survey
results show that budgets and department silos consistently pose problems for
them. The report also states how broader issues, such as racial diversity, and
lower priorities, like revising acceptable use policies, still require
attention.
