Think banks have the toughest cyber problems? Our conversation with Shane and Tony from the MCIU tech team flips that assumption fast. K–12 is the most targeted sector in the U.S., and the reasons are both simple and sobering: sprawling device fleets, legacy systems, budget constraints, and a mission that demands access over friction.
The path forward is thoughtful defaults, clear exceptions, and honest communication about why a block exists or a change is required. When people understand the reason, they adopt the rule—and stop turning to risky workarounds. Along the way, we share taglines, a few laughs, and a reminder that October’s Cybersecurity Awareness Month is a kickoff, not a finish line.
