Cinder hacked Beacon's network the night of the dance with the Black Queen virus. When Ironwood put his scroll on Ozpin's table it gave the virus access to Ironwood's scroll, which is why the screen flashed with the chess symbol and Cinder mentioned having a new access point. Ozpin's systems were already hacked by virtue of them all being connected to the Beacon CCT, but Ironwood's systems weren't because he hadn't actually connected the two before that moment.
