FERPA mapping updated for more focused compliance

What's new?

We've updated the FERPA framework to align with the latest Department of Education (DoE) guidance, delivering a more actionable and streamlined compliance experience. The revised framework removes informational text and government-specific requirements, eliminating unnecessary compliance efforts.

Why was this needed?

By refining control mappings and optimizing evidence suggestions, we've made it easier to understand what's required and reduced unnecessary compliance overhead, so you can focus on protecting student data without getting bogged down in irrelevant requirements.

How it works

• Access the updated FERPA framework from the Frameworks module

• Review refined control mappings with clearer descriptions and more direct alignment to outcomes

• Use optimized evidence suggestions that are relevant and clearly described

• Spend less time on compliance busywork and more time on meaningful data protection activities
