PowerSchool Holdings Inc. is under scrutiny as three federal lawsuits claim that it failed to safeguard sensitive personal information during a significant data breach, raising serious questions about its data security practices.
The complaints highlight that names, Social Security numbers, financial information, and academic records of students were among the personal data compromised, putting the company’s commitment to student privacy in jeopardy.
The plaintiffs assert that PowerSchool's actions constituted a breach of both common law and statutory obligations to maintain adequate data protection and to notify affected individuals promptly.
The lawsuits filed in the US District Court illustrate increasing accountability demands on educational technology providers, emphasizing adherence to both industry standards and legal frameworks such as the FTC Act.
