Hackers have threatened to release stolen data from the Los Angeles Unified School District if the public school system does not pay a ransom by Monday.
"We are diligently working with investigators and law enforcement agencies to determine what information was impacted and to whom it belongs," district officials said.
"Los Angeles Unified is not the first public school district that has been targeted and unfortunately, it will not be the last," district officials said."This ransomware attack demonstrates vulnerabilities that leave school districts nationwide susceptible to the significant risk of disruption to instruction, home to school transportation or access to nutritious meals which are catastrophic for students and their learning.
"To our school community and partners, we will update you when we have relevant information, and notify you if your personal information is impacted, as appropriate," officials said."We also expect to provide credit monitoring services, as appropriate, to impacted individuals. We will have more to share about how to sign up for credit monitoring services in the coming days."
