The Cybersecurity Collaborative is a private community where CTO’s, CIO’s, and CISO’s can vet, validate and verify their thoughts and ideas. Member have access to cybersecurity resources including policies, practices, and procedures. Experts address members’ concerns and challenges of current and future cyber threats. Members have access to the latest cyber defense knowledge, insights and expertise via unprecedented access to top CISOs and heads of privacy and risk.

The Cybersecurity Collaborative is singularly focused on one thing: the facilitation of a collaborative forum so like-minded individuals can openly share information. The collaborative will collectively make them stronger, and better equipped to protect their districts and organizations from those seeking to damage them. Created purposely without a larger corporate partnership or agenda, it offers complete independence from any corporate priorities like data use or product development.

• A safe haven for all of data
• A source of strength for the Cybersecurity community
• A confidential place where organizations can share skills and experiences
• A catalyst for peers of CISOs working with their peers in the community

Testimonials

“If I could have had access to this type of insight and guidance when I was a K12 technology leader, it would have been a very worthwhile investment.”

Susan Bearden, CETL, Chief Innovation Officer, Consortium School Networking (CoSN)

“ This is an extremely cost-effective way for our CoSN members to stay current on all the ransomware issues and get answers from IT experts that fight these attackers everyday”

Keith Krueger, CAE, CEO,  CoSN – Consortium for School Networking

“We have been working with a dozen members of the Cybersecurity Collaborative to understand the best practices they use so we can quickly implement a successful vendor risk management program.  We don’t have the budget that would have allowed us to do this with outside consultants and even if we did,  we wouldn’t have received the same level of insights and guidance we obtained from our peers in such a timely manner.”

Annette Harris, Assistant Director Infrastructure Services- Information Technology, Jefferson County Public Schools

“Although I only joined the Collaborative a few weeks ago, it has already more than paid for itself.  The Collaborative helps me make better decisions for our school district, and provides me with all the supporting cyber policies, practices, and procedures we need.  The handbook was especially helpful in guiding us on how to effectively implement practices for securing our network and staff devices.   Don’t hesitate to join, it’s one of the best cyber related decisions I have made for our district.”

Jeremy Wickham, North Shore School District 112
