I think I might have to differ on that point... Think back to when Cinder infiltrated and hacked the CCT... Ruby shows and in the middle of their fight, Ironwood shows up... Why? Let's say he went there to make communication back to Atlas... Would he not have conducted his call before escorting Ruby out? Ruby comes to Ozpin's office the next morning... Think about it... Ruby reports to Ironwood that she saw someone sneaking around and followed them to the CCT where she found the knocked out guard. She goes up into the CCT and catches Cinder and proceeds to fight her. Damage in the CCT from their fight proves what Ruby is saying. Ironwood would have called back to Atlas and requested a specialist, hence Winter's arrival. I think it was during that call that Ironwood's scroll was compromised and when he laid it on the desk in Ozpin's office, it compromised the Beacon Academy system which is what Cinder referred to as "her new access point". Beacon Academy and the CCT are two different systems. She immediately uses this new access point to start manipulating the matches... I think in the meeting with Qrow, Ozpin, Glynda and Ironwood that Ironwood may have realized he had indeed over reacted as Glynda had said. I just watched episode 3 again... Ironwood was looking directly at his scroll when he picked it up... I can't see how he missed the flickering black queen piece on his scroll...
