There was an E-sign and security act that allowed institutions to be able to accept online forms of signatures.

I learned that FERPA protects the students personal information from being displayed to the public. It creates a safety barrier for the students information and limits who has access.

There are many ways that FERPA protects the students information especially by having a detailed process of who is and is not allowed access and who can grant access. There are more layers to the security of information than I knew.

That FERPA is very important to follow, making it a very important tool to follow when working with student records. It also talked about confidentiality and how important it is to follow the guides put in place by FERPA to keep the students information safe.
