CIPA Information  

The Children's Internet Protection Act, also known as CIPA, is a bill that was passed in an attempt to limit children's exposure to pornography and other controversial material online.  CIPA requires schools and libraries to operate "a technology protection measure with respect to any of its computers with Internet access that protects against access through such computers to visual depictions that are obscene, child pornography, or harmful to minors," and that such a technology protection measure be employed "during any use of such computers by minors."

NSISD complies with CIPA requirements by utilizing the Astaro Security Gateway Appliance for Internet content filtering and a variety of other network services. Each student is assigned a unique user account and must authenticate each time he or she attempts to access the Internet.
