PowerSchool data breach affected 16,000 students in the UK
The edtech giant has begun notifying individuals outside of the US and Canada affected by the breach
The incident, first confirmed by PowerSchool in January, saw hackers access the personal data of millions of students and teachers after using compromised credentials to breach the company’s customer support portal. On the company’s incident page, which was offline at the time of publication, PowerSchool noted that it would not be offering credit monitoring services to data breach victims outside of the U.S. and Canada. PowerSchool has not yet confirmed the total number of individuals affected by the December breach, despite telling TechCrunch that it had “identified the schools and districts whose data was involved in this incident.”
