PowerSchool reported a significant security breach, where an unauthorized individual accessed its systems using a compromised credential, leading to the theft of sensitive data.
The breach affects personal data of over 60 million individuals in the K-12 education system, potentially violating privacy agreements and federal laws.
Concern over the breach is heightened as PowerSchool took nearly two weeks to inform its clients about the intrusion into their data.
PowerSchool acknowledged that the unauthorized actor managed to copy private information, affecting student records, including Social Security and medical data.
