3 Dixon High Students Suspended in Grade Data Breach

Posted on May 16, 2015 by Dissent

As an update to a previously reported incident: at least three students have been suspended so far in the grade-changing hack that has rocked Dixon High School.

At least nine teacher accounts were hacked and 200 grades changed since January for 32 students.

One teacher noticed something that resulted in the investigation, but I have yet to see any statement from the district as to how nine teacher accounts got hacked and why their security controls never detected anything.
