THIS EVENT HAS PASSED

Join 9ine for this free webinar, and learn how cybercriminals are employing advanced AI tools to exploit schools.

Cybercriminals are employing advanced AI tools to exploit schools by transforming publicly available images of children from school websites and digital channels, creating deepfake content, misusing them in harmful ways, and attempting to blackmail schools. This emerging risk underscores the need for schools to carefully review their policies on publishing student images on websites and social media to ensure compliance with child protection, safeguarding, and data privacy laws.

In this critical webinar, Mark Orchison, founder of 9ine, will guide school leaders through:

• Understanding the evolving threat of AI-driven image exploitation.
• Proactive steps to document and evaluate risks, including conducting Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIA).
• Establishing a clear legal basis for publishing photographs and providing opportunities for consent withdrawal.
• Updating privacy notices and policies to reflect emerging risks and compliance requirements.

OUTCOMES

• Gain an understanding of new safeguarding risks.
• Initiate conversations within your school community about the publication of student photographs and videos.
• Initial conversations within your school community on the developing risks of AI.
