ROE #3 Cybersecurity Workshop for District Leaders

Thu. October 17, 2024 | 9:00 am - 11:00 am CDT

Join the LTC’s Eric Muckensturm for an engaging training focused on identifying and responding to cyber attacks in an educational environment.

During this workshop, district leaders (including superintendents and technology directors) will participate in a Cybersecurity Tabletop Exercise, which simulates a real-world cyber attack in a controlled, scenario-based environment. Through this simulation, your leadership team can test their district’s response strategy and uncover potential vulnerabilities worth addressing before a real threat comes knocking.

This proactive approach is akin to a fire drill for cyber attacks, aiming to prepare your team for actual incidents by ensuring that all systems and protocols perform optimally under stress while equipping your leadership with the knowledge and skills needed to safeguard your organization against future cyber threats.

Workshop Objectives:

– Engage in Role-Playing Scenarios: Participants will navigate through the process of managing a cybersecurity incident as it unfolds, making real-time decisions based on their roles and responsibilities.
– Assess Response Plans: This exercise will test your current cybersecurity measures and protocols to identify strengths and uncover potential weaknesses in your response plan.
– Receive Expert Feedback: IT professionals will monitor the exercise, providing insights and feedback on the effectiveness of your actions and decision-making processes.
– Improve Preparedness: Utilize the outcomes of this exercise to refine your strategies, close any gaps in your processes, and strengthen your overall cybersecurity posture.
