S.C. (FOX Carolina) – New details are coming to light weeks after several Upstate school districts were alerted to a cybersecurity incident
The districts said a vendor representing Frontline Education, a software provider used by school districts nationwide, notified them that Frontline experienced a cybersecurity incident that may have compromised student information.
Anderson School District Three shared with FOX Carolina that this week, affected staff and families were contacted by TransUnion on behalf of Frontline. They received confirmation of what personal information was compromised, as well as next steps to set up credit monitoring provided
According to Frontline Education, its security team identified a vulnerability in a third-party software product it uses that allowed unauthorized <a href="https://bitcomme.com/servicenow-gemini-integration-workflows-and-access-2/” title=”ServiceNow Gemini integration: workflows and access”>access to a portion of the environment beginning on Aug. 14.
