Cybersecurity Leadership & Vision
Creating a strong cybersecurity program isn’t just about adopting a framework—it’s about aligning that framework with your school or district's mission, risk posture, and operational reality. Panelists will discuss how to strategically select and implement cybersecurity frameworks such as NIST CSF, CIS Controls, and more. Special attention will be given to the unique challenges and opportunities facing school districts, with panelists sharing practical tools and resources developed by the CoSN Cybersecurity Advisory to support K-12 leaders on their cybersecurity journey. Whether you're just starting or refining your cybersecurity foundation, this session offers actionable guidance for building your cybersecurity program.
