Cyber security is frequently in the news and there have been a number of high-profile ones in recent months impacting M & S, Co-op and Harrods. ict@norfolk.gov.uk 13/07/2025 11:59:30 GMT https://icteducation.norfolk.gov.uk/news.aspx?news_id=2197 We would like to ask schools to refrain from turning off the power to the core networking equipment over the forthcoming summer holiday period. Core networking equipment includes routers, switches and servers, often in a wall or floor cabinet. These devices are monitored by ourselves and Rydal/Schools Broadband and turning off the power results in false alarms. This could potentially result in your school incurring a charge for an engineer visit. ict@norfolk.gov.uk 27/06/2025 14:52:34 GMT https://icteducation.norfolk.gov.uk/news.aspx?news_id=2196 We have been notified by Google that support forlegacy Google Meet (formerly Google Duo) calling featureswill officially end inSeptember 2025.

After that date, no further updates, security fixes, or technical support will be available for these versions of Office.
