Education DMZ adapts the Science DMZ concept to community colleges and high schools, providing a platform for science data and instrument access, collaboration, and delivery of STEM teaching, with the goal of getting science to students as early as possible in their academic careers.
This session would take the form of a workshop, combining: 1. Presentation material on the concepts of Education DMZ and democratization of science 2. Open discussion on architecture and function of Education DMZ 3. Description and discussion about science drivers and achieving democratization of science.
With the recent New Article about this "Hacking Device" and how it has been used to disrupt instruction in the classroom, we think it's time to "Talk about the FlipperZero".
This will be an overview discussion about the device, its capabilities, and how it is being used maliciously in the classroom. We will provide tools and materials to help train educators on how to recognize use of this device in the classroom. Additionally we will demonstrate some of it's capabilities. And we will give guidance on how to handle students who are exploring this technology appropriately.

Through real-world examples from Iron County’s implementation, you'll discover how easy-to-use encryption can provide a seamless experience for securely sharing privileged information with approved parties across diverse technology environments and accounts. We'll also explore use cases that ensure compliance with regulations such as HIPAA, FERPA, and CIS controls. Attendees will gain insights into common privacy pitfalls when schools share student data outside their networks, understanding and meeting legal requirements, evaluating risks of different communication workflows, and adopting user-friendly data protection solutions for seamless communications. The session will provide a framework for developing a secure student data sharing strategy, drawing on privacy best practices, technical approaches, and lessons learned. Attendees will also receive a brief overview of modern encryption solutions like Virtru that balance robust security with usability.
