The Los Angeles Unified School District disclosed Wednesday, Feb. 22, that “approximately 2,000 student assessment records” were posted on the dark web as a result of a recent cyberattack, including those for 60 who are currently enrolled.
The posted records also included an unspecified number of driver’s license numbers and Social Security numbers. The district statement did not say to whom those numbers belonged, but the school system does not routinely collect Social Security numbers from students.
Separately, the Long Beach school system, one of the state’s largest, notified families Wednesday of a data breach that, so far, appears to contain the email addresses of students and student ID numbers.
