SUMMARY:Tabletop discussion -  Cybersecurity Day
DESCRIPTION:Location:  CVES Conference Center\, 1443 Military Turnpike\, Plattsburgh \nNo Charge to attend \nEvent Overview: \nIn today’s digital landscape\, K-12 schools are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals and face evolving risks—from ransomware attacks and insider threats to complex identity management challenges.

This is not a vendor sales pitch\, but a practical\, collaborative learning opportunity. \nWhat Makes This Event Unique? \n\nReal-World K-12 Focus:\nAll content is tailored to the unique risks\, compliance requirements\, and operational realities of school districts.\nInteractive Tabletop Exercise:\nExperience a guided\, multi-stage simulation based on CISA and FBI scenarios. Work through a timeline of events—from initial cyber alerts to disruptive phishing and payroll issues—demonstrating how seemingly unrelated incidents can escalate into a district-wide crisis.\nCollaborative Problem-Solving:\nBreak down silos between IT and administration. The exercise encourages open dialogue\, collaborative strategy development\, and critical thinking across district teams.\n\nRegistration Link for Wincap: 2025 – 2026 S3 Professional Development

All participants a retested with written and competency based tests to apply for re-certification. Participants will be able to: \n• Focus on the concept of reducing the risk of injury and trauma while providing meaningful experiences for children so that they may continue to grow and develop necessary life skills \n• Utilize a five-step risk assessment model that care workers\, supervisors\, and managers can use to assess\, manage\, and review risk in their programs \n• Explore tools that encourage individuals to consider individual\, situational\, decision-making\, management\, and system-wide risk factors which influence risk-taking and therefore positively or negatively impact the life experiences of children in their care. \nIMPORTANT Information: \nAll registered participants will also be required to register directly with Cornell. Upon registering in WinCap\, the link to register with Cornell will be sent to you. \nCornell will send pre-reading materials for this training. It will contain the reference guide\, agenda\, and certification requirements. Participants are required to read and understand the material before the training begins. These will be sent to the school address listed on the participants’ registration forms.
