Core networking equipment includes routers, switches and servers, often in a wall or floor cabinet. These devices are monitored by ourselves, Rydal and Schools Broadband and turning off the power results in false alarms. This could potentially result in you incurring a charge for an engineer visit. ict@norfolk.gov.uk 25/03/2025 19:55:44 GMT https://icteducation.norfolk.gov.uk/news.aspx?news_id=2185 We are aware that some schools/academies have been receiving emails, like the one shown below. ict@norfolk.gov.uk 24/03/2025 19:38:49 GMT https://icteducation.norfolk.gov.uk/news.aspx?news_id=2183 TheICT for Education Conference programmeis returning toCarrow RoadStadium, Norwich onFriday, 09 May 2025. ict@norfolk.gov.uk 22/03/2025 14:24:14 GMT https://icteducation.norfolk.gov.uk/news.aspx?news_id=2181 From April 7th, the way that users log into Anycomms Plus will be changing to make things more secure.

After that date, no further updates, security fixes, or technical support will be available for these versions of Office. While the applications may continue to function, using unsupported software could lead to potential security risks and other issues. Because migrations can take time, we recommend starting to upgrade any remaining devices your organization has running Office 2016 or Office 2019 to a supported version as soon as possible. ict@norfolk.gov.uk 21/10/2024 14:38:31 GMT https://icteducation.norfolk.gov.uk/news.aspx?news_id=2167 After October 14th, 2025, Microsoft will no longer provide security updates or technical support for Windows 10. Without regular updates, your device will be more susceptible to malware, viruses, and other cyber threats. ict@norfolk.gov.uk 06/10/2024 12:53:02 GMT
