" Logins posted on hacker forums. A flood of “Can we try this app?” emails. Either can expose student data without a repeatable plan. This action-oriented session delivers a two-part playbook any district can adopt: Automate dark-web scans, then trigger rapid password resets before attackers can gain access. Route every new software request through an approval flow that checks security, privacy, budget, and interoperability—without slowing instruction. Outcome: a concise blueprint for blocking threats and green-lighting classroom apps with confidence."
