Why is permitting students access to e-mails with attachments potentially dangerous for a school's network?

Privacy concerns
Increased workload for teachers
Potential viruses
Distraction from learning

The correct answer is: Potential viruses

Permitting students access to emails with attachments is considered potentially dangerous for a school's network primarily due to the risk of potential viruses. When students open attachments in emails, there is a chance they could inadvertently download malicious software or viruses that might compromise the school's network security. These attachments could be designed to exploit vulnerabilities in the system, leading to data breaches, loss of sensitive information, or even disruptions in the network functionality. Misunderstanding this risk can leave the network exposed to various cyber threats. Such threats can have serious implications, not only for the school's technology infrastructure but also for the safety and privacy of students' and staff's data. Educators and administrators must be vigilant about the types of files that can be accessed, shared, and downloaded within school systems to maintain a secure educational environment.
