How do I backup my MacBook?
Overview Before your MacBook is reimaged, or before you receive a new one, you will need to make sure any documents, files, and/or web browser favorites that are stored locally on your current device are backed up to another location. Examples of local storage include your Desktop, Documents folder, or Downloads folder, but this is not an exhaustive list. The preferred location to backup your MacBook is to your district One Drive account. Your district One Drive account provides 1TB of storage and easy access to your files from any web browser. It is not recommended to backup your MacBook to your H: drive as the files are only accessible from a CISD device while on the CISD network or to Google Drive as there is a very limited amount of space (12GB per staff member).If you choose to do so, you also have the option to use an external hard drive or USB flash drive as an alternative storage location, but this article will not cover specifically how to use them. Instructions Using One Drive for Desktop (Recommended) 1. To see if you already have Microsoft One Drive installed look for the Microsoft OneDrive logo (shown below on the far left). if you already see this icon please skip to step 6 2.

What is PhishID?
In a continued effort to enhance the safety and security of all of our learners and staff, the CISD has implemented a new phishing prevention tool called PhishID. PhishID leverages a browser plug-in to stop phishing at the point-of-click. What does this mean for me? Normal day-to-day browsing will still be the same, but in the background, PhishID will help protect you from malicious links and URLs that attempt to steal your credentials. If you inadvertently navigate to an unsafe website, PhishID will present a block page like below: What should I do if i receive a block page? If you receive a block page, you can select the "Go Back" option or close the page. If you believe you have received a block page in error, please submit a ticket. Include a screenshot of the block page to help expedite resolution. We appreciate your assistance in keeping CISD secure!
