I'm passing this info on with permission from Lori at KIDS. Seems like a topic
we discuss here all the time. NFI is informative and is a lot of fun. I hope
to see some of the tech geeks there!

Description:
This session will begin by looking at some of the legal and insurance liability
issues districts now face related to technology. Participants will then examine
eight types of technology security threats confronting districts, including:
network security; data and identity theft; inappropriate content;
cyberbullying; predators; inappropriate uses of the network; copyright
infringement; misuse of mobile communication devices. Participants will create
a framework of policies, procedures, trainings, and hardware/ software systems
that districts should have in place to address those threats.
Teams of technology coordinators and administrators are encouraged to attend.
The session is based on the book "Security vs. Access: Balancing Safety and
Productivity in the Digital School." (Book included in conference fee.
Registrations received after October 12th may not receive the book at the
conference).
Participants should bring to the session their own district policies,
procedures, security training plan, and infrastructure information.
Dinner Tuesday night at Vinny Vanucchi’s in Galena is sponsored by H2IT and
CISCO Systems!
You must make your own room reservation at Eagle Ridge. Call 1-800-892-2269 and
