Florida Virtual School database now uploaded to HaveIBeenPwned

Posted on March 17, 2018 by Dissent

From Troy Hunt, an aid to parents who want to check if their email address or their child’s email address was in a leaked database:

New breach: The Florida Virtual School had 368k student records with 543k email addresses exposed including names, grades and dates of birth. It’s flagged as “sensitive” due to the prevalence of children in the data. 69% were already in https://haveibeenpwned.com/ 

Note that there were a lot of old data in that database, i.e.,  there were people in that database who were born in the 1980s and 1990s and are not children any more. The file may have been last updated around 2015 or 2016. I didn’t really dive into it too deeply as I working on other aspects of the leak.
