ADE Summit 2026

Join the Arkansas Department of Education, in partnership with the State Cybersecurity Office, to explore some of the most frequent cybersecurity incidents reported through the Arkansas Legislative Audit and the ADE’s history of events. This session highlights real-world scenarios that have compromised systems, exposed sensitive data, and disrupted district operations, while examining the common tactics and activities behind these incidents. Participants will engage in a practical discussion on what these events mean for schools today and the steps district leaders can take to keep students safe, protect data, and maintain operational continuity.
