The
COVID-19 pandemic meant that schools in the U.S. and all around the
world had to switch to digital learning. As schools, teachers, and
students rapidly acclimatized themselves to this new version of school, a
new threat emerged: cybersecurity breaches. Two school districts in the
San Francisco Bay Area, Oakland and Berkeley, suffered recent
cybersecurity breaches, and student privacy was severely compromised.
Reports of such breaches of student privacy and digital security are
surfacing across the country.
