Anything K12 edtech is fair game - instructional, infrastructure, incident response, tools, tips, tricks, deployment, data privacy, diagnostics, etc., etc. (though we do tend to publish most on device mgmt, infrastructure mgmt, and security)

I just got off a call prepping for what should be a great panel at the AI Show @ASU+GSV in San Diego next month! If you're in the neighborhood, admission is free (but registration is required). Honored to be on a panel with such an esteemed group of folks! #k12cyber

It's almost like people making decisions about "efficiency" have no idea what the hell they're doing.

I'm thinking about trying to find a second job that I can do on the side while I wait for Microsoft Admin dashboards to load... I could probably clock 10 hours a week 🤔

This is what technology learning looks like in real time, and also why I love it so much. Learn -> Iterate -> Error -> Learn More -> Iterate -> New Error (if you're lucky) -> Repeat until success

Eventful week! CISM on Wed. and CETL today. With these done, it's time for a break before tackling the Microsoft SC-200 and SC-100 this spring. Ironically. my lowest-scored domain was "Understanding the Educational Environment," a place I've spent the vast majority of my life. But yeh, fair 🤣

Starting to see some numbers on the breadth of the PowerSchool breach. My estimate was 50M... didn't think I'd be shooting so low. #k12cyber www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/securit...

Well, that was a quick change of heart. I personally think the answer would have been to extend Windows 10 support till everyone's hardware caught up to the Windows 11 requirements, and THEN send Windows 10 to end of support, but 🤷♂️
It's welcome news for many schools, however.

The pricing at my favorite Blue Team training platform (LetsDefend.io) is ridiculously discounted right now at 55% off... But if you are EDU, take an EXTRA 50% off automatically if you sign up w/ .edu, but K12 can have your school's domain added to the discount list by emailing support. #k12cyber
