Cybersecurity, TRSL, and you
School systems in Louisiana and across the country were targeted by cybercriminals this past summer in ransomware attacks where school data was held hostage or destroyed unless ransom was received.
Hackers recognized that many school districts house a wealth of student and employee information often with limited technology resources to fend off intruders.
As your agency works to remain vigilant in the increasingly complex world of cybersecurity, don’t forget that TRSL can be your partner in safeguarding retirement data for your employees.
By keeping your records up-to-date with TRSL, we can provide your certified member information back to you in the event your agency suffers a cyberattack and your own data is not recoverable.
That’s why we strongly recommend that you certify your agency’s outstanding questionable years and submit all sick leave records on a yearly basis.
Annual employer certifications are critical for TRSL to maintain reliable member records and accurately calculate member retirement benefits—and they can help you recover from unforseen data losses, such as the recent cyberattacks.
Save yourself and your employees undue hardship… don’t leave something so important to chance.
