SUMMARY:SOC vs. The Clock!
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to race the clock and defend your district. \nIllinois K-12 technology directors and cybersecurity staff will be immersed in a live cybersecurity experience unlike anything you’ve seen before. SOC 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. \nThis is not a lecture. This is not a demo. This is your chance to experience a cyberattack before it happens to you.

SUMMARY:AA 4054: Designing a Comprehensive CS Program for School Leaders
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this academy is to help administrators successfully meet the computer science mandates outlined in Illinois legislation by following research-informed practices for creating an implementation plan. These plans will guide them to create sustainable computer science programs that help students learn the computer science and computer literacy skills necessary to be successful in an increasingly technological world. \nParticipants will know/be able to: \n\nExamine key concept areas of computer science as a content area\, using technical terminology when appropriate\nInvestigate the differences between computer science and computer literacy\nDetermine the relevance a computer science education has to long-term student success\nEvaluate their resource availability and compare it to the version they have for their computer science program\nCreate their own computer science implementation plan\n\nTo achieve these outcomes\, participants must review their current school plan and budget before the session. On the day of the session\, participants must bring a laptop\, their school strategic plans\, current and next year’s budget\, a list of technology available in the building\, a list of the courses offered\, a list of their teachers’ endorsements\, and any other information on short- and long-term school and computer science goals. \n— \nRegistration for this event closes June 19\, 2025. \nBreakfast and lunch will be provided to event attendees. \nThis event is being hosted in conjunction with CS + AI PD Week. Participants are also invited to participate in the CS + AI PD Week social from 6:00-8:00 PM at Ingrained Brewing (Springfield\, IL).
