Rethinking Cyber Risk and Security Investment, S3E1

Cybersecurity and cyber risk are interesting and developing topics in the world of K12 education.

Over the past several years, we have seen a massive investment in technology across schools and districts. This investment in educational tools has led to increased risk from student data to network soundness. 

In this episode of the CoSN podcast presented by Tanium, we discuss the cyber risk challenges that are unique to education, how to handle multi-device and individual device security, and an effective framework for districts, schools, and tech leaders to understand and implement cybersecurity strategies.
