Talk Out of School: Focus on student privacy and breaches
thewire.educators.nyc
EPISODE SUMMARY This week we focused on student privacy, with guests Tina Kim, NY Deputy Comptroller for State Government Accountability whose office just released an audit showing widespread lack of oversight by the state and district compliance with NY’s student privacy law, and Doug Levin, a cybersecurity expert and the National Director of K12 Security Information eXchange about what the federal government, states, and districts should be doing better to prevent student data breaches and what families can do to protect their children from identity theft after a breach has occurred. NYC schools have seen a rash of breaches lately; just last month it was announced that 45,000 NYC students and an untold number of teachers and service providers had their data exposed by the breach of a program called the MOVEit and last year, the Illuminate breach revealed the data of about 800,000 current and past NYC students.
