Somerset Area Schools Select SSL-Based Solution to Connect to the Digital World
Because the IVE uses SSL, the connection remains at the application layer, which keeps the production network immune from attacks by viruses and Trojan horses. The IVE dynamically transforms the networked content teachers and administrators need over a secure Internet connection to a Web-based extranet interface. On the backend LAN side, the IVE's native protocol connectors (HTTP, HTTPS, POP and SMTP) attach to the Somerset application servers seamlessly with no configuration.In the summer of 2003, we created a portal where parents can check on their students' homework assignments and grades, as well as calendars of events and district updates. By making the information available online, while still protecting the privacy of the students, we are able to keep students honest with their parents about grades and homework. We can also help parents stay more informed of their child's progress by enabling them to get involved should problems arise.
