"The PowerSchool and Canvas breaches raised a hard question for the edtech industry: when vendors set cybersecurity priorities and budgets, who’s actually in the room? Students, parents, and school communities usually aren’t, and this session makes the case for changing that.

Moderated by Mark Racine of RootED Solutions, this panel brings together practitioners working at the front lines of K-12 security: Doug Levin of K12 SIX, and Michael Klein, Institute for Security and Technology, and Lauren Zabierek, Principal LZX Consulting. Through a candid discussion and open Q&A, panelists will explore the gap between edtech vendor commitments and action, why reputational pressure alone hasn’t moved the needle, and what collective action could look like when the public has real leverage.

This is a session for anyone who believes K-12 cybersecurity is a shared responsibility, not just a vendor’s line item.
