Breakfast Connector 2026 #4
How safe is your school? Security, AI and Image Privacy
We welcome Stuart Dillon-Roberts, one of our Business Partners, to talk to us about this very important and relevant topic.
Presentation overview
The risks facing schools are changing quickly, from website and email vulnerabilities to AI deepfakes, image harvesting and the misuse of student photos.
Stuart will safely demonstrate how cyber attackers can exploit common weaknesses and explain the practical steps schools can take to reduce these risks.
During the presentation, attendees will receive exclusive access to Stuart’s School Digital Safety Assessment. The tool passively reviews publicly visible website, email-security and privacy status. It also checks school-nominated technology products against the relevant ST4S badge list.
Each participating school can generate a personalised report highlighting issues to review, recommended actions and questions to discuss with its IT, email and website providers.*
Stuart will also present findings from his research into AI deepfakes and image manipulation. Images published online can now be copied, located through facial-search technology and altered into convincing deepfakes within minutes. This is no longer simply a communications concern—it is a child-safety issue.

*The assessment is an advisory, passive review, not a penetration test, security certification or ST4S compliance audit. It does not log in to school systems, exploit vulnerabilities or attempt to bypass security controls. Access is restricted because each school’s findings should be treated as confidential and shared only with authorised staff and relevant technology providers.
