DESCRIPTION:Dr. Julie Evans will be presenting “The Critical Role of Communication Expertise in a District Cybersecurity Ecosystem” on Monday\, July 17\, 2023 at 8AM CDT at Union Station Hotel. \nPer recent research\, district superintendents name protecting technology infrastructure\, data assets and student/staff personal records from nefarious actors in the global information sphere as a top challenge for their district.
