Hackers accessed 500,000 social security numbers and addresses for over 500,000 students and staff in the San Diego Unified School District. Originating in a phishing attack in which the log-in credentials of around 50 staff members were compromised, hackers used the information to mine social security numbers, names, dates of birth, mailing addresses, home addresses, phone numbers, health information, attendance data, legal notices, parent and guardian information, benefits information, payroll information, and more. The data that was breached extended back to the 2008-2009 school year, pushing the numbers above 500,000 individuals hacked.
