Ca: Privacy breach at College of the North Atlantic

Posted on September 21, 2012 by Dissent

From The Telegram:

Some students’ private information became available to all students at the College of the North Atlantic Ridge Road campus, it was announced today.

A news release states that officials at CNA’s Atlantic’s Engineering Technology Centre have been made aware that a document containing personal information about students who had purchased lockers had been inadvertently made available on a shared folder, which was accessible to all students in the building.

The document contained each student’s name, ID number, phone number, program of study, locker number, the serial number of their lock, and the lock combination. The file was originally posted to the folder on Aug. 22, and was periodically updated with information as students purchased lockers.
