Episode 72: Cybersecurity in Education as a Balancing Act

In episode 72 of Cybersecurity Where You Are, co-host Tony Sager is joined by Phyllis Lee, VP of Security Best Practices (SBP) Content Development at the Center for Internet Security® (CIS®). Together, they discuss "Cybersecurity: Practice What, and While, We Teach," a keynote panel where they discussed cybersecurity in education during Tech Tactics in Education: Data and IT Security in the New Now. Throughout this episode, they pull in recorded snippets from their panel. They use those recordings to reflect on IT operational challenges and the need to balance different interests in education organizations, including K-12 schools and higher education institutions. They also highlight commonalities that present not only opportunities for collaboration in the education sector but also instances where CIS can help advance cybersecurity in education through the content it produces.
