Sweetwater Union High School District confirms data breach caused outages in February

“The Sweetwater Union High School District has confirmed a hack was the cause of a days-long system outage at their facilities, saying the personal information of employees, students, and families was accessed and taken.“

“The update comes four months after the incident. On Friday afternoon, the Sweetwater Union High School District sent out a release about a security incident that left students and staff without email and internet access for days in February. “

“The district says their investigation determined in mid-May that some personal information from current and former employees, their dependents, students, and families was potentially included in files taken by someone who gained access to the district's network. “

“The district's release doesn't specify how or when people affected will be notified of the hack, but they list a number for people to call if they haven't received a letter by June 26. “
