MidwestTechTalk Security Symposium 2026/K12TechPro Meetup

MidwestTechTalk Security Symposium 2026 is a two-day K-12 technology cybersecurity conference event. Spend time deep diving into your district's technology security. Every detail is planned by folks who work for School District Technology Departments. This is NOT an instructional tech conference nor just a tech conference -- This is a Tech Department security conference. It covers latest trends and threats in cybersecurity, cybersecurity best practices, advancing cybersecurity strategy, protecting organizations from ransomware, hardening systems and infrastructure, networking with K-12 IT professionals, exploring critical first steps after a breach, and keeping pace with the changing threat landscape. This is also the K12TechPro Regional Meetup for the Midwest, offering a great opportunity for K12 Tech Depts to come together and talk tech and deep dive into trending technology topics and issues. Participants will receive lunch and dinner on Thursday, breakfast and lunch on Friday, security-themed swag, a day of tabletop exercises and incident response planning on Thursday, access to K-12 technology security focused sessions on Friday, and hear from experienced keynote speakers and presenters.
