SUMMARY:SOC vs. The Clock!
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to race the clock and defend your district. \nSophos and Twotrees\, in partnership with the Regional Offices of Education and the Learning Technology Centers\, invite Illinois K-12 Technology Directors and Cybersecurity staff to an immersive\, live cybersecurity experience unlike anything you’ve seen before. \nSOC vs. The Clock drops you directly into the middle of a real-world ransomware attack. This interactive\, hands-on simulation challenges you to think and act like a SOC analyst while making high-stakes decisions under pressure. As the attack unfolds\, you’ll hunt for indicators of compromise\, investigate initial access and data theft\, and respond to an active adversary—all while the clock is ticking. \nGuided by Sophos threat detection and response experts\, you’ll gain insider insight into how modern attacks really happen\, how MDR (Managed Detection and Response) teams stop threats in real time\, and what effective incident response looks like when every second counts. Along the way\, you’ll collaborate with peers from neighboring school districts; sharing strategies\, lessons learned\, and best practices in a supportive\, team-based environment. \nAnd yes—fuel is provided. Enjoy coffee and donuts to start the day and stick around for a complimentary catered lunch. \n▪ This is not a lecture.\n▪ This is not a demo.\n▪ This is your chance to experience a cyberattack before it happens to you.

SUMMARY:Be Connected: Penetration Testing
DESCRIPTION:How far could an outside threat actor infiltrate your district’s networks? And what if that same threat is coming from within one of your schools? \nEither way\, penetration testing remains as important as ever. Tune in as we explore why a truly resilient defense requires both external perimeter testing (to block outside intruders) and internal testing (to simulate what happens after a credential is lost or a device is compromised). \nAt the same time\, we’ll focus in on the “day after” report: how to prioritize remediation steps and use your findings to prove to your school board that security funding is an investment\, not just a cost. Along those lines\, we’ll also break down the 2026 budget realities for these dual-layered audits and discuss how to schedule them effectively around your district’s busiest cycles. \n____ \nBe Connected is a virtual networking series designed to spark meaningful conversations and collaboration within Illinois’ K–12 technology community. \nHosted by the LTC’s Technology Services team\, each free session centers around a different relevant topic\, ranging from infrastructure planning and cybersecurity to emerging tools\, networking strategies\, and day-to-day IT challenges. These informal yet purposeful sessions offer a relaxed and supportive environment where participants can ask questions\, share experiences\, and learn from one another. \nExplore upcoming session topics: https://www.ltcillinois.org/services/beconnected/
