CPSB cybersecurity breach investigation handed over to DA

Posted on August 10, 2022 by Dissent

Emily Burleigh reports:

Calcasieu Superintendent of Education Shannon LaFargue said progress has been made with the cybersecurity breach earlier this year.

At Tuesday night’s School Board meeting, LaFargue said the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office has officially turned over their findings to the DA’s office. In “encouraging news,” the investigation is now under the Department of Homeland Security, he said.

With federal help, the progress on the investigation has been accelerated and suspects have been identified, LaFargue said without identifiying the suspects.
