Rethinking Cyber Risk and Security Investment, S3E1

Cybersecurity is an interesting and developing topic 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. Today’s guest is Doug Thompson, Chief Education Architect at Tanium. In this episode, Doug answers an important question regarding K12 education: Does your district lack the visibility to accurately gauge your cyber risk? Throughout the conversation, Doug describes the factors of visibility, what districts should be considering while building cyber security programs, and how to best implement effective cyber risk management systems and strategies.
