Profile

March District, also known as Bezirk March, is a public administrative authority located in Switzerland. It provides governmental services to the resident population of the March district region. The organisation is responsible for overseeing the operation of district schools and maintaining telephone service infrastructure. March District manages its own information technology systems to support the delivery of these services. Its administrative functions include coordinating local governance activities within the canton of Schwyz.

The March district serves the geographic area corresponding to the Bezirk March, which is situated in the canton of Schwyz. As a governmental body, it holds a regulatory role in local administration and operates within the public sector framework of Swiss municipal governance. A notable attribute of the organisation is its duty to ensure IT continuity and protect data, exemplified by its response to a cyberattack on 1 December 2023. During that incident, March District shut down all IT systems to safeguard information while keeping court hearings operational, though school Wi‑Fi and telephone services were temporarily disrupted. The organisation functions as a public authority under the oversight of the cantonal government, with no private ownership or parent‑subsidiary structure indicated in the available sources.
