K-12 district use case
Turn cybersecurity and AI governance into a repeatable leadership process.
CyberReady is designed to help districts establish framework posture, assess evidence-supported maturity, document gaps, prioritize improvement, and maintain an accountable record for leadership review.
Two responsibilities
One governance challenge
Districts face persistent cybersecurity exposure while AI systems and embedded capabilities create new inventory, vendor, privacy, oversight, and accountability questions.
Cybersecurity
Identity and access, third parties, sensitive information, incident coordination, continuity, recovery, and executive oversight require more than a collection of tools.
AI governance
Districts need to know which AI systems are in use, what data they touch, who is accountable, how vendors are reviewed, and what evidence supports governance decisions.
