Your Key to Safe, Productive Digital Learning
Strengthen your district’s cybersecurity posture with insights from peers and industry experts
Cybersecurity is rooted in knowledge and preparation. SecurED Schools is rich in both, with numerous relevant sessions on SOPPA, threat prevention, budgeting, and more. Each learning opportunity comes paired with a resource or best practice – many of which you can immediately put to use toward your current cybersecurity goal.
During forward-facing discussions and forecasts, you’ll also hear updates on threats facing K-12 institutions, making it easier for you and your district to always stay one step ahead.
By the end, you’ll be more than just cybersecurity aware; you’ll be better prepared to enhance your district’s cybersecurity posture, no matter where you are in your journey toward safe digital learning.
