The federal privacy watchdog says he’s “concerned” about a cybersecurity breach involving a student information system used across Canada, as the country’s largest school board revealed the scope of the data that may have been stolen last month.
The Toronto District School Board told parents and guardians in an email Monday that its students’ birthdays, addresses, health card numbers, emergency contacts and some medical information stored since September 2017 may have been included in the data breach involving the PowerSchool platform.
