Morris Jeff School becomes latest Louisiana school to suffer cybersecurity breach

Posted on August 1, 2019 by Dissent

Della Hasselle reports:

Morris Jeff Community School in New Orleans has become the latest Louisiana public school — and apparently the first in the metro area — to experience a cybersecurity breach, continuing a crisis that has prompted an emergency declaration from Gov. John Bel Edwards and forced officials to try to minimize damage ahead of the start of the school year.

On Thursday, officials with New Orleans Public Schools said they learned about the breach the previous day.

Read more on NOLA.com, although it’s not clear from their reporting what kind of incident this was as the report says, “The security breach was experienced by a single user on a single device, and no student information was compromised, the school said.”
